I would think it unlikely to be an error with the password, once your set up and the password has been working then generally it would be some other kind of error, most likely the server and the best option is to wait and try later. So shouldn't this be the default option for evolution? If evo gets an error put an error icon somewhere so you can manually run send/receive and then you get the dialogue boxes. -danny -- - - -- ------------------------------------ ----- --- -- - - - # /""\ ) |>Danny Wilson :web: # # c-ojo ( |>Designer :photography: # # \ -/ c[_] | www.focusscope.com :animation: # - - -- ------------------------------------ ----- --- -- - - - _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
