Description Christoph Neuroth 2009-05-25 11:25:27 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When configuring Kontact using kolabwizard, the wizard seems to try to save the password if the checkbox is checked (if no kwallet exists, the kwallet wizard starts). However, when Kmail is started, it asks for the password two times (once for receiving and once for sending).

Reproduce:
  * Start kolabwizard
  * Fill in all fields
  * Check "save password" box
  * Finish the wizard
  * Start kontact
  * Click "Receive Emails"
Result:
  * A dialog appears, asking for your password.

Further investigated this issue: Kolabwizard creates entries "account-1" and "account-2", but KDE4 kmail uses "account-123456789" where 123456789 seems to be some kind of hash or a random number.

Also with 4.2.4 and 4.3beta2

Please confirm this issue still exists with KDE 4.8.3, as I seem unable to reproduce this issue.

Resolving this issue for now, awaiting your feedback.
