Re: [evolution-patches] Patch to fix anonymous nntp

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

Hmm, this should already be fixed.  The creation of the uri that is.  If the account was setup before hand though, it will still have the old broken uri.

See:

I'd probably rather stick to that solution since it creates a proper uri.
