in natty evolution freezes before password window opens

Asked by Ron B.

I am using evoloution in natty. Have two mail accounts which work there fine. On adding a new mail account evoloution freezes before it gets to aks me for the pw for the new account.

I was able to restore access to the prev. 2 accounts by starting with evoloution --offline and then deleting the new account.

Is there a work around or some way to enter a password right up front when adding the new account?

Thanks in advance...

Evolution doesn't let you add the password through the preferences or any other menu besides the pop up dialogue. Natty is in Beta so this could be fixed soon. Report it as a Bug just in case. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

OK thanks.. I don't have any technical information to help with reporting a bug though?
