I'm on 11.10 now and the bug is still present and has annoyed me for
several Ubuntu versions.

The problem seems to occur when the mail server responds with some kind of 
error because it has a problem. I have 4 Evolution installations that use the 
same provider. When the mail service of my provider breaks down evolution 
starts to ask for passwords - maybe because my provider rejects my credentials 
due to some malfunction. If the service is back up however Evolution should try 
to use the original password again.
The password dialog should never open once a successful authentication has been 
established for the first time. There should only be a dialog to inform the 
user that the service can not be logged into right now.

Please finally fix this bug - thank you.
