It is reproducible. After some time period it appears that the saved password expires. If I fill in the password again it will check for new email for a while.
When I set up the pop account I added the password and checked the "save password" box. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sebastien Bacher" <seb...@ubuntu.com> To: ariz...@comcast.net Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 2:18:35 AM GMT -07:00 U.S. Mountain Time (Arizona) Subject: [Bug 374703] Re: evolution email program does not retain password Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
