Hi, Apologies for using this scatter-gun approach, but I'm having a slight problem with setting up Evolution which I believe to be specific to Evolution, rather than to my distro (openSuSE 11.0).
________________________________________________________________________ I'm using Evolution 2.22.1.1 with OpenSuSE 11.0 with no problems on 3 email accounts that I have moved from Windows/Thunderbird. I have set up a news account - to match that on my Windows installation - but I am unable to it because I fail authentication by the server. Specifically the failure information message is presented immediately after I am requested to supply the NNTP password for a specific account. My ISP/news server provider tells me that my NNTP password is that which I use for normal email. I have this password correct because I am able to send and receive normal email on that account The failure message I receive is number 502 - cannot authenticate on server (or very similar wording to this). It must be a configuration error because I am able to access this news server, using the same email account, from Windows/Thunderbird and OpenSuSE/Claws Mail without problem. Neither of these 2 packages ask for an NNTP password. Could somebody suggest some things that I should check?
