GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 329601
Exchange password dialog comes up before the shell
Last modified: 2012-02-02 14:38:06 UTC
When an exchange account is configured and password is not remembered, while invoking evolution, first the password prompt dialog comes up and after a few seconds delay shell comes up. Ideally shell should come up first and later the password dialog.
Bumping version to a stable release.
Note that the package "evolution-exchange" is deprecated nowadays. Similar functionality is now provided by "evolution-mapi" and "evolution-ews" packages. This bug was reported against a version that is now not supported anymore. Could you please check if the problem that you reported here still happens with a recent version of Evolution (like 3.2 or 3.0) by reporting back and providing both your version and the package that you use? Thanks in advance!
Closing this bug report as no updated information has been provided. Please reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of Evolution (currently this means: preferably version 3.2.x) and provide the information that was asked for in the previous comment. Again thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed for the version that you originally used when reporting this problem.
