i set a password in the irc module

i type the correct password in the irc module, but i need to type it every time...

it don't seem to save it correctely
Comment 1 Michel Hermier 2005-12-04 12:00:20 UTC
What are you typing every time, and where?
Because in irc there are 2 commons way to authentify:
Using the PASS command or using the nickserv service.
Comment 2 Marc Collin 2005-12-05 04:21:52 UTC
it's in the irc config windows... where we type information about the irc setup...
Comment 3 Francis Irving 2006-02-10 11:50:36 UTC
I have this problem also. More specifically, although it remembers the user password in the "Basic setup" tab for the account, it fails to remember the IRC server password in the Connection tab | Edit... | Network Configuration | Host configuration | Password. 

The other details there are saved in ircnetworks.xml by the functions IRCProtocol::slotSaveNetworkConfig and IRCProtocol::slotReadNetworks and in kopete/protocols/ircprotocol.cpp. But this doesn't seem the right place to save a password (I had a go, and it saves and loads it, but its saves it in plaintext in the file, and you still have to go into the dialog to refresh it). 

What is the right place
