Short answer: >From within Evolution, select from the menu "Edit --> Preferences" In the box that pops up, you want the "Mail Accounts" tab. If there is no mail account listed in the box for you to Edit, you'll need to Add one. Assuming it's been added, you can select your account and click "Edit" on the right side. You'll now be in the account editor, choose the "Receiving Email" heading. Here is where you can find the details for setting up communications with your email server, including the check box for remember password. There is no password entry location here, when your account is enabled and you click "Send/Receive" in the main Evolution window for the first time, it should ask you for it, or at least throw an error to help you find the problem.
Evolution is pretty similar to Outlook in look and feel. There is lots of documentation and it can often take a while to work through things -- don't give up on Linux because of that. >>> "Frank Fahey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09/28/07 8:47 am >>> I wish to create a mail account in Evolution in Ubuntu. The account I want to use is [EMAIL PROTECTED], but in creating the account, there was no entries to enter a password for the new POP email account. I cannot find properties for the account in Evolution. I have been a Window user for more then 20 years and would like to try Linux. Not yet excited for finding the basic information need to use a email client like Evolution.
