Version: 2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) OS: Linux I would like to use kmail2, but I do not want to use kwallet. kmail 1.x used to store the password on disc without kwallet. Please restore this behaviour. For me this behaviour is a showstopper (this and other bugs, see my buglist). I know the advantages of kwallet, but in my (probably special) case I do not want to use kwallet or any other password storage system except the old one from kmail 1.x (save password in config) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: disable kwallet, get annoyed by kmail 2.x behaviour.
I upgraded to kde-4.7 and i am really shocked. I never used kwallet, and when I try to receive my mails via pop3 nothing happens (kmail2 indicating it is receiving but I can wait forever). Also I cannot edit the password-field in configuration. Also the upgrade process destroyed my folder structure, answer-templates are lost. I am really shocked how this upgrade handles such sensible data.

This Bug is NOT a duplicate of bug 276076! This bug is about not beeing able to store passwords without kwallet. Bug 276076 is about not beeing able to enter runtime only passwords for pop3 Please unduplicate it again!
I close it because we never do it. all resources use kwallet, so we can't do it. you can create a wallet without password for it. Regards
