Version: 1.13.6 (using KDE 4.6.1)
OS: Linux
Since I updatet KDE from 4.6.0 to 4.6.1, Kmail (I use it with kontact) doesn't connect to kwallet any more. It fails at the beginning of my user session and asks every few minutes again for password. Always after some unsuccessful connections to kwallet, a small window appears with some message like "kmail couldn't connnect to kwallet a few times, maybe a bug in the program"(my DE is german). Other programs such as kopete or quassel are still working well with kwallet.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
→ Enter new user session
→ enter kwallet password
→ try to check mails
Actual Results:
kmail connecting to kwallet fails and asks for a password manually.
Expected Results:
kmail should connect correctly to kwallet and use its stored password to check the mails.
Happend after update: KDE 4.6.0 → 4.6.1
Kmail wasn't updatet.
