Blah. I think libsoup is buggy, and if the proxy offers NTLM, soup tries
to do NTLM auth to the destination server rather than the proxy.
There's no clean workaround, but you might be able to fake soup out by
changing your username from "charles" (or whatever) to
"charles;AUTH=Basic". But that would break proxy usage outside of
evolution.
You could also try creating a file ".souprc" in your homedir and adding:
proxy-uri: http://username;AUTH=Basic:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/
but I think that will only work if you don't have a proxy configured in
the control center, because otherwise that information would override
the souprc info.
