Description Christophe Marin 2018-06-28 13:32:44 UTC 
This is bugging me since ages, it was time to write a report.

When logging on an imap server fails for any reason and the user clicks on the "Try Again" button, he's presented a window asking for the account password.

The password field is empty. It shouldn't. Failed login doesn't necessarily means the password is wrong. (users of the yahoo server have imap issues *very* often)
