Package: icedove
Version: 38.4.0-1~deb8u1
Severity: important

Why "important"? Can't send email anymore.

When starting icedove, I get the following, unexpected dialog:

    Microsoft Exchange EWS: Password request.

Enter password for mydomain\myusername on https://mymailserver/ews/exchange.asmx

    ____

    [ ] Use Password Manager to remember this password.

    [ Cancel ] [ OK ]

When I enter my supposed password and click on OK,
the dialog appears again.

When I click on Cancel instead, the program continues,
but sending email via SMTP to the MS server fails,
probably because of the missing password.

Downgrading to 31.7.0-1~deb8u1 helps, but has the
disadvantage of exposing users to a dozen of CVEs.

I wonder whether this is related to #806918?
