Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-1
Severity: minor

Hello,
KMail is started by the session manager when KDE starts up, and asks for a 
password (IMAP) that is already saved in KWallet.

Sometimes KWallet gives a warning about a misbehaving application:

"There have been repeated failed attempts to gain access to a wallet. An 
application may be misbehaving."

The password can be found in KWallet when you check for it, so that's not the 
problem.

I'm guessing either interaction issues between KMail and KWallet, or some sort 
of race condition in restoring sessions where KMail loads before or 
simultaneously with KWallet and requests the IMAP password before KWallet 
itself is unlocked: KWallet itself requests its unlock password *after* KMail 
requests the IMAP password, so KMail simply couldn't have checked the IMAP 
password from KWallet since it was still locked.

I assume KMail for some reason doesn't wait until KWallet is unlocked, and 
hence asks the IMAP password directly from the user.

What I expect and want to happen, quite logically, is that KMail uses the saved 
IMAP password from KWallet and doesn't ask for it to be manually entered every 
time.


Thanks,

  Wouter
