Oh, sorry. In the gnome-keyring-manager package there's a gnome-keyring-manager too. Try to run it. If you don't have the package (it's only available from stable), maybe look in the seahorse package (which I think have replaced the gnome-keyring-manager). > >>> >>>> Is the UI asking for password the evolution one or the >>>> gnome-keyring one? >>> >>> It is asking for the POP3 password. >> >> So evolution can't speak to gnome-keyring.

But once you've entered the password in the session, it'll forget it even for the next “receive mail”? > >> It seems that evolution can't talk to gnome-keyring, but I'm not sure if >> it's an evolution or a gnome-keyring (or dbus or whatever) problem. > > I would assume evolution, because it keeps forgetting the POP3 password. Well, if evolution sees gnome-keyring running but it doesn't reply, it'll do the same thing I guess. As a workaround you might be able to just kill gnome-keyring so evolution will not ask g-k at all.
