Comment 0 for bug 895643

I am using liferea to read a private feed, that is protected via HTTPS and can be accessed via user/password only.

I have my user/password for this feed configured as HTTP-Authentification.

Liferea can check whether new feed items are present without needing that same password information.

I have configured liferea to show the items in the internal reader.

This is all well behaved: The "WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm" of the feed and the content is identical, and it is the same host.

I click on an item the first time since liferea has been started.

Expected outcome: The auth info configured into the reader is used to access the content.

Outcome seen: I need to retype user and password again. Tomorrow, again. Day after tomorrow, again.
