[Evolution] Bug#623486: evolution: Unable to contact IMAP corporate server: Could not find a suitable authentication type: code 0xffffffff

[Guilhem Bonnefille]

Package: evolution
Version: 2.32.2-2
Severity: important

Since a recent update (2.32.2) evolution is no more able to contact my corporate IMAP server. It reports:
Could not connect to my.corporate.imap.server: Could not find a
suitable authentication type: code 0xffffffff

I tried to add debug info (CAMEL_DEBUG=all), but this message does not
appears in the output.
I also tried to delete and rebuild the account. But nothing better.

Note that evolution complains about need for working online, while I'm online and using NetworkManager). I also tried to use wireshark to dump the network and it seems that evolution does not send any data over network.
Note also that this configuration was working before upgrade (at least with 2.30.3).
Note also that the recent upgrade also move (with some issues) my configuration to new XDG compliant directories.

Did I missed something?
How to investigate and solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for any help.
