I believe the best advice you have received on this list was from [email protected] to install: - getmail and/or offlineimap I have used fetchmail in the past with Evolution. This is easier than it sounds. You create a config file for fetchmail, getmail or offlinemap with one or more accounts you wish to fetch from. These programs pull the mail down to a local mail spool file. In most cases Evolution will find this local mail file easily and you should have access to your mail. You may need to write a simple script to put in your local cron settings. This will fetch the mail on a periodic basis. Or you can do as I did and run it when you want to check your e-mail. All this may sound harder than it is. Feel free to contact me, if you would like to give this a quick shot. You can probably find more directed advise on an Ubuntu mailing list. By the way I have seen this "ask for a password until infinity" from Evolution on many occasions. Usually I see this on my Google mail servers, but it goes away after an hour or so. Best of luck.
