Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

Evolution 2.28.1

After rebuilding from previous settings: If you misspell your password
there is no easy way to correct. File/Forget Passwords don't lead to a
opportunity to type in a corrected password, disabling the account with
unchecked remember password don't help. Only when I intentionally used
wrong authentication types I was presented with a fresh requester for
the password. Changing back to the appropriate authentication types
afterwards lead to a usable email system.

Unchecking the remember password options should lead to requesting the
password the first instance the account is used again. Of course this is
required also for security reasons.

Hey: otherwise I love Evolution!
