Just made a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04.1.It is quite annoying that I have to write the password to the POP3 server, every time i check for mail(It is not the default keyring).How to disable the password check for mail?If it not possible, i have to install another mail program.
View 7 RepliesI have wiped Windows and am running 10.04 exclusively. 32 bit, when setting up evolution e mail account i dont see where to enter password....where is it? anyone have link with screenshots? i know i can use regular hotmail but want to know how to use default ubuntu programs.
I still can't find a spot for password. options are, login, set preferences and a remember password checkbox but nowhere to enter a password
The great clock applet shows tasks and appointments from the evolution calendar. That's a great and fast overview of my agenda. But clicking a task of appointment opens a new instance from evolution every time, which is enormously annoying and really destroying productivity. I don't want 15 calendars open, I want the applet to behave like an index. So it should reuse the open instance and bring focus to the clicked appointment or task. How do I disable multiple instances of evolution?

So, possible to disable it without negative effects? If so how to do that? The only problems I've had relating to Gnome have been Evolution. I'll just copy email links and paste them in Gmail.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 9.10. When I open Evolution, it prompts me for a password to the default keyring. I am not sure what this is, but I would like to not have to do this. I looked around in Evolution and did not see a way to have this password entered automatically. I searched this forum and it found no results. So I don't know if my problem is unique or not.

Is it possible to send an email with a password anyother way?
I have installed Ubuntu three times now, and I'm running into same problem all the time, both with Karmic Koala (9.10) and now also Lucid Lynx (10.04):
When I configure Evolution for IMAP access to my GMAIL account, it never prompts me for a password. Instead, I guess Evolution tries to connect without any password and fails every time. Switching to Thunderbird didn't do the trick either, so I think it might have something to do with the Keyring daemon. My Internet connection is fine, as I can access my account under other operating systems.
Things I've tried so far:
"Forget passwords" in the evolution menu
Forcing shutdown of evolution and deleting the ~/.evolution folder (as suggested by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221112)
Accessing the keyring and deleting the default keyring

I forgot my email password which was stored in evolution. The gnome wiki says it's in ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution/ but I don't have this directory. does anyone know where the password is stored? I'm using 10.04
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have several Gmail accounts. On one of my Ubuntu-running computers (Hardy) Evolution remembers the passwords. Which is a good thing, as I can't remember one of the passwords.
When I'm out and about with my netbook, I like to check my email. But I don't use Evolution on the netbook; I access the Gmail accounts via the web. And because I can't remember the password for one account, I can't check it.
Obviously, on my Hardy desktop, Evolution/Ubuntu remembers the password - so it must be stored on the computer, right? How do I get Ubuntu to tell me the password?
I want to password protect evolution. How would I do that? I want to allow anyone to access all my other software, but my business email needs to be privateMy current solution seems to be to setup another account. But all the user switching and other what not seems a little much for one program.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI found much of the info is out of date. I installed Lucid - my /home was on a separate partition so I did not format it to keep the original settings and mail. When trying to send/receive mail, Evolution now asks for the old login password from the previous install to open the mail keyring. "The password you use to login no longer matches that of your login keyring" There is a box to enter the old PW.
SOLUTION:
-Go to Applications-Accessories-Passwords and Encryption Keys
-Right click on Passwords:login
-Select Change Password
-Type your old login password in the "Old Password" field
-Type your new password in both the Password: and Confirm: fields.
-Click OK
-REBOOT
Evolution will now use your new login password to access the keyring.
I have set up my account twice in Evolution mail. Both times when I activate, no prompt for password comes up, as a result, no connection to my gmail. Supposed to prompt the first time, right?
View 2 Replies View Relatedwe're switching some of our workstations over to Ubuntu 10.04. For the most part, the change has been good. But.... Evolution just doesn't seem to work very well at all. We're using Google apps with our domain, and our connection is quite slow (512/128 VSAT for ~45 users). Evolution has a lot of problems sending and receiving email. I don't know if it's because of the slow connection, but before, we didn't seem to have problems with Outlook. I'm using the Mail.app on my Mac, and it sending/receiving is slow, but things eventually get through.
On the Ubuntu computers, Evolution really seems to get hung up on sending. It just sits there. I've had one user where their messages just sat for a day and never got sent. When I went in to look at it, I canceled, started the process again, and it asked for the SMTP password (which it seems to do a lot). Once it had the password, it was able to send. Receiving, however, was still very very slow and usually nothing comes in (although there are clearly new messages).
I cannot log on to my server because of the pop up window that asks for a password to unlock the keyring. I have tried to just hit cancel
View 5 Replies View RelatedThis morning when I opened Evolution, It asked me for a password. It didn't like my login pass. It wanted an old password I used to use. When I click on Evolution I get Enter password to unlock your login keyring The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring.

I am new to the community and have just recently loaded Ubuntu 10.04. I think I made an error when I first launched Evolution, how can I get back into the wizard to add/correct the e-mail password?
View 1 Replies View RelatedEvolution works fine for receiving mail, but I cant send anything.When i hit "send/receive" itll receive but ask for smtp password every single time. My understanding is that the password is your email password, but it wont accept it.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi find it really annoying to type in my password every time i run update manager. it is a stupid feature, i shouldn't have to type it in if i want to make my computer better. how can i disable it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know, I know, its a security feature. That doesn't make it any less annoying. I find the constant asking for my password to be every bit as irritating as Windows's UAC. When I want to use the terminal, or when I want to download something, I don't want to have to enter my password every time. I don't care that someone could theoretically do something to my computer in some way. I managed to stay out of harms way in windows with UAC off, I'm sure I can do it in ubuntu without the constant nagging of the password prompts. Its annoying and I am tired of dealing with it. Anyone know how to turn it off? I am really not looking for reasons to leave it on. Its the same with UAC: Yeah, it can keep you out of trouble. No, I don't want it on.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running Evolution 2.30.3 on fc13.x64 and I've been getting a funny problem for a while, that now really annoys me:
even if the settings for my hotmail account are correct, Evolution will ask for the password every time I log in. Also, since I keep it open, after a while (~30 minutes) it "forgets" somehow the password and asks for the password again. This time, anyway, it won't work and I have to reset Evolution again.
Bonus question: even if hotmail is configured correctly for receiving and sending (smtp.live.com etc.), it won't send email, but will remain stuck on "sending".
I setup my evolution to get this forums news. (eg. threads and posts). However, I can't get them because it give me this: I keep entering my forum password over and over again but I can't authenticate :S And you might also need to check these: [URL]
