[Evolution] Bug#413142: evolution-exchange: Unable to authenticate to Exchange Account that previously worked

Package: evolution-exchange
Severity: normal


This issue has come again with 2.26.1-2.

Basically, an Exchange account that is working fine with 2.24.5-1 will
reject your authentication after upgrading to 2.26.1-2. Settings have
not been touched in any way and I double checked them. Couldn't find
anything unusual.


Workaround: downgrading back to 2.24.5-1 solves the issue, but folders.db
files seems to get randomly corrupted in the process, as described here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/327057

(deleting folders.db files then launch Evolution back solves this issue)


Note that this bug has been file against evolution 2.26.1.1-1 (#525966):

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=525966

To me, it is way more severe than normal, and I can confirm it.
