Description cebelab° 2007-06-01 13:21:19 UTC 
What were you doing when the application crashed?
Hi,

My Evolution is 2.8.3... It does not want to store my accounts passwords. I've 3 pop3 accounts, on which the checkboxes "remember my password" are both checked (for pop as for smtp), but there is nothing to do, when Evo wants to check my accounts, it asks me all my passwords, and idem when I want to send e-mails... 

My Evolution folder is ~/.evolution

Is there anything to do to really store my passwords?


Distribution: openSUSE 10.2 (i586)
Gnome Release: 2.16.1 2006-11-28 (SUSE)
BugBuddy Version: 2.16.0
Comment 1 cebelab° 2007-06-01 14:00:33 UTC 
I just found more details about this bug:

It appends only when I start Evolution (2.8) from the Gnome Keybindings... When I load the software from the Gnome menu or from the terminal (by evolution command), my passwords are remembered, and Evo doesn't ask its.

In favourite apps panel, in mail section, I've try to change the default "evolution %s" command by "evolution" command but the bug stays, and Evo asks me passwords for my 3 pop accounts when attempts receiving mails.

Hope that can be resolved,

thanks

arg... damned, it seems the bug appears when clicking on a "mailto:" links too...

so, when opening Evolution with the terminal command, by "evolution" or "evolution-2.8", it's ok

when opening it through a gnome keybinding or a mailto: link, it asks me all passwords

and when this appends, the next first time that I restart Evolution by menu or terminal, it asks me passwords too...


This bug appears first time when I've updated my gnome 2.12 to 2.16 (upgrading SuSE 10.1 to 10.2)... Since this time, I've totally uninstalled Evolution, and deleted my .evolution directory, then reinstalled it, but the issue is staying

I hope that I am clear,

cebelab°

PS: I've tried to change "evolution %s" into "evolution-2.8" and "evolution-2.8 %s" in favourites apps. too and I've the same problem...
