Bug Description

The problem occurs, when a valid password is entered for an account and a problem occurs when fetching a mail (for example the server only allows 3 logins in 5 minutes and we try 5 times)

Steps to reproduce:
  -> Create an e-mail account in evolution and enter your configuration data. (Tested with pop3 and imap)
  -> Fetch your mails from the server, enter your passphrase.
  -> Retry fetching, until the server denies login (exceed maximum retry / min count of server)
  -> See your passwords removed for this account.

Since the upstream evolution-data-server bug has been marked as duplicate of the upstream evolution bug, it's no longer valid.
