Dear Maintainer, When I boot up my computer, log in, and open evolution, and then ask it to POP e-mail --- it does so without asking for my password. I would prefer that it asks for my password at each session, when I first ask it to POP e-mail. If it does not ask, then somebody else might interfere with my e-mail account, if I allowed them to use my computer to, for example, to use my browser. Also, if I only very rarely enter my password, I will forget it. Some people might prefer that evolution does not ask for the password after each login, perhaps the team could make the system configurable on this point. Thank you all very much for maintaining evolution for us all. with best regards from Richard Betham
Dear Maintainers, Evolution version 3.22.6-1+deb9u2 running on Debian 9, Stretch, works more to my liking. It correctly forgets the password on logout, or on subsequent switch off of computer. It does not forget the password for POP when Evolution closes, but I can live with that. with best regards from Richard Betham
Dear Maintainers I ave found the solution. When my computer, running Evolution version 3.46.4-2, puts a dialogue box to ask for my password, the dialogue box has a tick box about "keyring". I failed to understand the meaning of this. It was ticked by default. I have now unticked it, and so my computer seems to forget my password when I close Evolution. I have now worked it out, so that solves the problem for me. However, when I clicked on "Help" in the menu, and then did a search for "password", I did not find the answer to the problem. Maybe the "Help" or the documentation could be improved. Thank you very much for your attention. with best regards from Richard Betham
