Evolution issue in F17

Hi I upgraded to f17 and suddenly evolution won't send emails.

I've now had a repeated experience of my emails disappearing - not deleted, just disappearing - since I converted from POP to IMAP. How do I stop this perverse behaviour?

On (bad) advice I converted my Evolution email client account from POP to IMAP. ALL email, in every folder, in client and host server just disappeared. I had no opportunity to even take a back-up in Evolution.

I zwitched on Desktop from mutt to Evolution to some extent. Now I cannot find my sent emails so where are the sent -emails when they are sent with Evolution -email-program?

This sync -bug may be related to this lag -bug here. Basically Inbox shows +1 email but cannot find it, I have deselected I think all options such as search not to filter out emails. You can see my progress with the questions below.

I love Ubuntu and Evolution so I installed Evolution on Ubuntu 12.04 when I upgraded recently.

I restored my mail from a backup and on starting Evolution for the first time, received a message about converting my emails and once successful, deleting the mbox versions via Edit -> Preferences -> Mail accounts.

This all worked as expected until I did my first backup and realised that the

Hey, I just installed the beta 2 a week or so ago, and since then I have been trying to get Evolution set up. I installed Gnome 3.6 to replace unity and have been enjoying it aside from this issue. I'm not entirely sure what is causing it, but during account setup, Evolution just doesn't ask for a password. It lets me finish the setup however and opens Evolution to empty folders.

I have just installed/upgraded OpenSUSE 11.3 and setup Evolution Email with 3 Email Accounts. Just for a while I could see all 3 accounts listed on the left column.

Suddenly after reading some emails I just noticed that one Email Account (Comcast) had disappeared from the listing.

I set up a WebDAV addressbook in evolution, and copied lots of contacts in to it.

I have Evolution installed and working, kinda. When I open Evolution, I am asked to give the IMAP password for user on mail.user.com.

I type in the password I use to login to my mail account on my website, and it continues to ask for the password.
