Thanks as always for your help.

I am accessing mail from two accounts, both from IMAP servers;
but I have given the passwords for both, and asked KMail to store them.
I assume this means that they need not be stored in the wallet?

Also this has been working for ages, without being asked
for my Wallet password.
Some update seems to have changed things.

So I guess my question is, how do I add or remove
an application from my wallet?
I did look at the KWallet handbook,
and opened my wallet to look in there.
I see that kmail has 5 passwords saved there,
for items like account-1493402304 .
How can I determine what account this refers to?
