GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 331337
Change Server type is not changing configuration file
Last modified: 2012-02-02 14:37:45 UTC
Please describe the problem: If you create an account of a certain type (IE: IMAP) and later on you try to change it to a different type (IE: Exchange Connector), after restarting the application, the program tries to authenticate to the new server type (Exchange) but it provides information from the old configuration (IMAP) Steps to reproduce: 1. Create an IMAP user account and verify that is operational 2. Edit -> Preferences -> Mail Accounts -> Select the IMAP account -> click on Edit -> click on Receiving Mail tab -> Change Server Type to Microsoft Exchange -> enter other relevant information applicable to the Exchange server -> OK 3. Restart Evolution Actual results: When you restart Evolution, the program prompts you to enter the password for domain\username@<imap server information> instead of domain\user@<exchange server information> Expected results: Once that the account type gets changed, the program should use the new server information, not the old one Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
Hi Carlos, Can you please check again whether this issue still happens in Evolution 3.0.3 or 3.2.2 and update this report by adding a comment and changing the "Version" field? Thanks a lot.
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.
