It's Bck! Along with 12.10 Quantal came a new version of Evolution. While I've noticed a couple fixes/improvements, it is now even more unstable than it had been, and this repeated prompting for password makes it virtually unusable. If anyone is still watching this in spite of it having b

I'm seeing the same problem with Evolution, but not in Ubuntu - I'm using openSUSE 11.1 (x64). It seems to me that the connection to my email at Bellsouth (4 accounts) times-out, and Evolution assumes that the password is incorrect. Canceling and restarting Evolution does not help, it just prompts
