Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

I successfully set up a MAPI account to an Exchange 2003 server and then subsequently removed that account.

Unfortunately in my Calendar, Tasks and Memos was an entry for that MAPI account that I could not delete with the GUI.

Every time I went to these windows I was prompted for a password to connect to the Exchange server, even though I had already deleted the associated mail account!

I had to use the gconf-editor to manually delete the respective settings and get these things off my Evolution screens.

I saw the same problem - highly annoying. To be specific I deleted the following entries in gconf:
/apps/evolution/calendar/sources -> MAPI entry
/apps/evolution/memos/sources/ -> MAPI entry
/apps/evolution/tasks/sources/ -> MAPI entry
