Public bug reported: After the upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 I can't check my emails anymore using Evolution. I always get a "connection refused" message. The mailserver is using IMAPS on port 993, but Evolution keeps trying port 143. Pressing F5 for folder refreshing works, but retrieving the actual email is impossible. The mailserver rejects connections on port 143. My Evolution account is set to always use SSL. Previously this worked perfectly.
I removed and re-installed Evolution (including the data server) and I setup the account from scratch. No help. I did run extensive tests with Wireshark and the initial connection attempt is on port 993, but then it keeps trying to download the emails via port 143. And also storing the password doesn't work anymore. I get asked every time again. The account setting says to remember the password. ** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Connection refused since it tries to connect to port 143 instead of 993 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
