Thie dialog box that pops up cannot be interacted with. attempting to type in the box, hitting enter, or using tab to scroll through the options results in these actions being taken on the "Select contacts" dialog below, not the, apparently active and focused password dialog box. the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons will not activate, and do nothing when clicked. The contact selection dialog also cannot be closed and it's "Close" button at the bottom does not respond, nor does the composer window. the main evolution window also fails to respond to commands. The only way to get out of it is to pick a local contact list, then close the contact list window with its window-bar close button. Then the password dialog becomes active, can be typed in, and the rest of the program begins to respond as expected. Note: I dont know if it does this with any other non-local contact lists, as i only have Gmail to test with. The issue can be reproduced easily, as illustrated below. Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch evolution. 2. Go to "File > Forget Passwords" and clear all remembered passwords 3. Close, then relaunch Evolution. Re-enter any passwords as requested for reading mail from servers. 4. From the "Mail" window, select "New > Mail Message" 5. Click the "To:" button to open the contact selector 6. Go to the address book selector, and pick an on-line Gmail address book from the list at the bottom under "Google" 7. The troublesome password dialog will immediately pop up, displaying the described symptoms. Steps to get the dialog box to go away: 1. re-select the open "Contact Selector" window 2. from the address book selector, pick a local address book 3. manually close the "Contact Selector" with the button on the window bar (i.e. not it's "Close" button, as this doesnt work) 4. The password dialog should become active. Please feel free to contact me if I need to do/try anything else. Hope this helps!
