Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evolution
This has happened to me a few times now, after upgrading to jaunty:
* suspend laptop in the evening
* resume laptop in the morning
* network-manager thinks it's still online
* evolution's mail fetching timer goes off
* evolution sees that NM claims there's network access
* evolution tries to fetch mail, but fails to connect to POP3 server
* evolution decides the password is invalid, forgets it, and prompts for new one
* network-manager has realized it's really offline and sets up network again
What NM does seems to be a bug, but it should be reported already. This
bug is about what evolution does: it should _not_ forget a password just
because it can't connect to the server.
