--- Comment #7 from Paul Gover <[email protected]> --- The behaviour changed with the latest KDE PIM release I installed (4.8.5); up to and including the previous (4.8.3), it remained as described in the bug above. It now appears to work as I'd expect. (Whether that's correct is another question, but it suits me!) Thus, if I start Kontact before doing anything else, Kwallet pops up and asks for my password, after which it successfully gets my new mail etc. If I start Firefox first (I've changed to that in preference to Chromium), the first time I browse a web page allowing a login causes the Kwallet plugin to pop up and ask me for my password. If I now start Kontact, it doesn't bother to ask for a password, it just goes off and get my mail. I believe I can tailor this behaviour in the KDE System Settings, but it's what I want. The one scenario I'm not sure about is if I start Firefox, and then close it, whether Kontact asks for a password. I tried testing it, but think I need to wait longer for the password from Firefox to expire. I suspect the change in behaviour is linked to the fact that I now get to see the "new mail" gizmo in the Task Manager. I suspect that the KDE desktop was starting it silently in the background immediately after login, and now it gets kicked off when I start Kontact, which is the behaviour I expect. (This may be because I explicitly closed both Kontact and the "new mail" gizmo once before logging out of KDE; maybe that cleared it from the list of tasks to restart at login. But I'm guessing.) In summary, I'm now a happier bunny. (If I could work out what semantic desktop and akonadi and all that actually bought me, I'd be ecstatic. How about updating KDE help and find files applications guys? ) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
