Comment 2 for bug 24800

Could this be related to bug #22400? In breezy, theres a problem with kded, the daemon process which includes wallet handling; you can test this by seeing if other applications have similar behaviour e.g. paste the feed url into konqueror. I say this because I have my gmail feed in akregator, which is most definitely both https and password authenticated, and I don't have the same problem.
