I have the same problem with 8.10. I tried a new user (The Guest one) as you suggested Pedro but no luck.
When setting the account up, It is strange that for the IMAP password it asks you if you want to save it, but for the SMTP password only asks you if you want to save the password for the session. For some reason the password gets stored in the keyring when it is IMAP but it does not when it comes to the SMTP password. -- Evolution does not preserve outgoing SMTP Password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
