Hi All, |
2 |
|

I've updated a number of kde (plasma) packages, including kde- |
4 |
frameworks/kwallet-5.34.0-r1. A depclean action wanted to remove |
5 |
kde-apps/kwalletd-16.04.3-r1 and I let it do its tha'ng. |

Following a new login I discovered that *every* time I wanted to send a |
8 |
message I was being asked for the SMTP password. For some users with 6 or |
9 |
more email accounts this soon became tiresome. The pop up advises that the |
10 |
password should be saved in kwallet and offers the choice to save it in ... |
11 |
the configuration file! It also advises that although it will be obfuscated |
12 |
it will not be safe in the configuration file. There are two buttons, one to |
13 |
save the password in the configuration file and another to not save it (at |
14 |
all). |
15 |
|
16 |
So to retain what sanity I may have left, I had to re-install kde- |
17 |
apps/kwalletd-16.04.3-r1, which appears to be able to manage SMTP passwords |
18 |
without asking each time the user. |

Have you noticed the same? Is there a fix or workaround for this? |
