Version: 1.1.2 (using KDE KDE 3.4.3) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux If i use Kontact/Kmail with KWalletManager - the stored password's for my pop-accounts get lost after some time (1 or 2 ours). I have to re-enter the passwords regularly. If i dont use KWalletManager (store password in KMail-Configuration), everything works well. I had the same problem with older versions. Stefan
What makes you think this is a kwalletmanager bug, let alone a kwallet bug?
If i disable kwalletmanager, all passwords are saved korrectly within kmail. I have this behaviour only if i activate kwalletmngr. I use 4 pop accounts and i have the same problem for all 4 accounts in the same manner.

ok ... when you say that, i can believe you - i only said, that the kontact/kmail-passwords gets lost when i use it together with kwallet - and i signed it as a (possible) kontact-bug. i (truly) don't know, which part is reponsible for that behaviour.

I know. I was asking that original question of the person who assigned the bug to me. I'm trying to figure out why he did that. You filed it in the right place.
My reason: he said that the password worked once or twice, but stopped working after a while. And that it only happened with KWallet enabled. So it's one of two: a bug in KWallet or a bug in the KMail code dealing with KWallet. Since I know you handle KWallet bugs pretty fast, I'd like to get your opinion first. If it isn't KWallet, we can reassign to KMail. Just a side note: I've never lost a single password with KWallet.

That's George-abuse. :-) I'd prefer a cc: with a question than a reassignment. > Just a side note: I've never lost a single password with KWallet. Me neither, nor have I ever had a report of such except during development when I committed a bad patch once.

Hi the kded is still running - but i found out something else: One wrong password is stored within Kwallet. KMail ask me th re-enter the password, give me access (for one time) but do not! update the kwallet-password. So the next time the password is wrong again. Maybe i had some wrong passwords in the past (because i have to change it every 3 months ...) Now i changed my password within kwalletmanager and it seems to work. I there was an wrong password within kmail, then the option "store passwords" within kmail get lost. It would be better to keep that option as the client choosed.
Let's try KMail then.
Hi again i have the same behavoir with kopete/jabber-plugin. kopete does not update new passworts to kwallet - i have to modify it manually. Stefan
Are you still having this problem in a current version?
Hi i didnt had the problem for along while. I think we can close this. Stefan
