You need to have no password set for your keyring, that's what I've always done, but I'm sorry I can't remember how to do that. Seahorse is the program that I've always installed to do keyring management, perhaps that lets you change password to an empty one? I recently installed Bullseye on a new PC and just now realise I didn't have to do anything special for the keyring, Evolution just worked without needing keyring password. -- Tixy
