I strongly agree. It is difficult to understand why this is not a bug. Clearly, this only changed since the last
update. Ubuntu users using automatic login did not have to enter a password for evolution before the
last update and now they do. It would make sense to regard this as a bug and change it back to the
way it was before the last update (asap with a subsequent update) and not be in denial about this
as Micro$oft would be. This is a problem on the new EV400 my folks just purchased (and they are
clearly not power users.) My Mom used to use Outlook Express before transitioning to linux and did
not have to type in a password when she launched her e-mail client in order to check her messages.

Please consider fixing this issue. Another recommended fix for this I have read in the forums is
to switch to Thunderbird (which I would rather not have her to do.)

Thanks in advance for any further consideration.
