evolution isn't able to communicate with your keyring. Thus it is asking the password everytime (and is unable to save it, and thus it gets asked again next time). If there really wasn't any change, I would reboot and see if it gets picked properly, as it may be the quickest solution. Otherwise, you can start by shutting doen all evolution processes (eolution --force-shutdown), checking the keyring contenst (open seahorse)...
