Kio and probably through all Akonadi apps: After installing kmail and a bunch of other extras, without opening any mail window, authentication dialog to mail.google.com automatically shows and after closing will reopen after ~1m

Bug Description

I installed all KDE Plasma software:

sudo apt-get install kde-* plasma-* --no-install-recommends

Probably somewhat related to Kmail but ubuntu-bug -w gives kio.

The window for Authentication Dialog constantly shows asking for Username & Pass for mail.google.com. Didn't open any mail apps.

This also happened to me after installing all tke KDE Plasma software. It’s so annoying that I feel like reinstalling the OS. The only thing I can do is minimize it. I use Kubuntu 20.10 Groovy

Removing kio is not an option since that ends up removing the entire KDE software, including the desktop.

I suppose it has something to do with KDE Wallet
