GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 682425
Can do network operations on disabled accounts
Last modified: 2012-09-05 13:42:41 UTC
After upgrading from 3.2.2 to 3.4.3 and starting Evolution the second time, Evolution is not closing and looking and the backtrace it looks like it is trying to download all messages from a *disabled* Usenet account (NNTP). Looking at the preferences the account is disabled. I was also asked for the password of a disabled IMAP account.
I can confirm this in 3.5.91, I see connection attempts to disabled MAPI accounts. I'm investigating this only for 3.5.92, the 3.4.x doesn't have scheduled any more updates, and is quite different from 3.5.x here.
Created attachment 223537 [details] [review] evo patch for evolution; This helps me, as it goes online/offline only for enabled accounts. I also made the "going to online/offline" activity visible on status bar and assigned it a cancellable - I'm not sure why it was not done, maybe just a forgotten thing.
Created commit 511acab in evo master (3.5.92+)
