In other words, if you have automatic login configured for your system,
where you don't have to enter your password when your system boots up,
then you'll have to enter the keyring password the first time you use
any application that requires a password, a la Evo. I discovered this by
accident, so I turned off auto-login, and set all email accounts in Evo
to remember their passwords.
