Haven't found a reasonable hit about this so here goes. I have two views of the same email account on my laptop in Evolution 2.12.1 (Gnome 2.20 on FC8 - kernel is 2.6.23). One view has direct connections defined for when i am in the corporate office. The other has connections defined through ssh proxies through a VPN when i am out of the office. It's funky, i know, but the mail part works great. The problem is that when i retrieve or send mail, evolution wants to use the default keyring (presumably for a key to use to encrypt/decrypt the passwords it stores). The problem is, if i start out with no keyrings in /tmp or in ~/.gnome2/keyrings, when i connect to one of the accounts, evolution asks me to create a password for the 'default' keyring as one does not exist. Cool. Now i can connect to that account. Each time i restart evolution it asks for the keyring password, and it works fine. UNTIL, i change to the other account, and then it cannot get access to the keyring no matter what. No password will match. The only work around i have is to blow away all the keyrings, kill the gnome-keyring-manager-d process, and then i can connect to the desired account. The only difference i can see, is that in the case where there is no keyring, gnome-keyring-manager-d is not running until after evolution aks me for a default password. In the other case, gnome-keyring-manager-d is either running before evolution is started or as a result of evolution starting.
Any thoughts?
