This is somewhat related to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/liferea/+bug/208135 ,
allthough that is a different issue.

** Description changed:

  I am using liferea to read a private feed, that is protected via HTTPS
  and can be accessed via user/password only.
  
  I have my user/password for this feed configured as HTTP-
  Authentification.
  
- Liferea can check whether new feed items are present without needing
- that same password information.
+ Liferea can check whether new feed items are present. No need to type in
+ that password information. Configuration works.
+ 
+ The feed and content are well behaved: The "WWW-Authenticate: Basic
+ realm" of the feed and the content are identical, and they are served by
+ the same host.
  
  I have configured liferea to show the items in the internal reader.
- 
- This is all well behaved: The "WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm" of the
- feed and the content is identical, and it is the same host.
  
  I click on an item the first time since liferea has been started.
  
  Expected outcome: The auth info configured into the reader is used to
  access the content.
  
- Outcome seen: I need to retype user and password again. Tomorrow, again.
- Day after tomorrow, again.
+ Outcome seen: I need to retype user and password again. (Tomorrow,
+ again. Day after tomorrow, again. ...)
