Darn it, you forced me to start up Evo and I'd rather not.
The password goes in my IMAP incoming mail tab under
authentication types, tick off remember password.

Oh. if you mean the password for LDAP, does this help? It's
been so long since I did it, that ... this is for Evo 2.8.3.
Heh - yes, the LDAP server is distinct from the IMAP server, and
requires a different password. I can't find anywhere to enter it in the
"LDAP Address Book" config, nor does Evo ask me for it. I have filed a
Debian bug about this in the hope that someone will either fix it or
enlighten me.
Ho hum. Apologies for interrupting the discussion of unique UUIDs ...
