Title:
  Evolution fails to ask for password while contacting server

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  When starting Evolution, it attempts to retrieve email from pop.server without requesting a password, resulting in 'Error while fetching mail' message.
  Using the Send/Receive button throws up a dialog box 'Send & Receive Mail' which then request password details and proceeds accordingly. Remember password is also checked but never seems to be retained by Evolution either.

  From .xsession-errors
  ** (evolution:7282): CRITICAL **: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL' failed
  ** (evolution:7282): DEBUG: Number of email accounts: 1

  Ubuntu 9.10
