Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

I set up thw IMAP accounts from Gmail into Evolution.
First one works like as charm
Second one send a popup message ...authentification error on IMAP server etc ...
When I put right password I enter into endless loop - I put a password , Evolution ask againa and so on.
I checked Gmail account settings - I may have to get POP3 and IMAP access not only web access from web browser.

If I remove ~./.evolution it does not help. I do not know where the program keep mail account settings but not this directory forsure!
When I open Evolution I see my two accounts and all settings are keeped.

So this is a bug while someone insert first time in the time of cretating mail account a wrong password. This mail account someome does not use anymore in Evolution.

thank you for your bug report, what ubuntu version do you use? the current hardy version uses gnome-keyring to store passwords, you can edit those using seahorse
