Bug Description
Evolution 3.28.1-2 on Ubuntu 18.04.
On restarting evolution for Google imap account, settings for receiving/ sending options change automatically to OAuth 2.0
And I get the error:
"The reported error was “Failed to authenticate: Data source “<email address hidden>” does not support OAuth 2.0 authentication”."
If I change the settings again in preferences manually, on restarting the account settings for receiving - change itself from Password to OAuth2(Google), and for sending - from login to OAuth2(Google).
Do let me if it is not clear or more information is needed.
Please suggest a solution.
Thanks
