Comment 11 for bug 107974

Every time I start Evolution it asks for my Exchange password, and every time I enter it with the remember box checked. I think this was a problem for me in the past, but then it went away. I'm now using a fresh install of Hardy and it's back. I've tried deleting my ~/.gconf2/keyrings directory and starting fresh, but the it always asks for my password.

The weird thing is that I'm also subscribed to my Google Calendar and Evolution does remember my password for that just fine.

If I start Evolution up from a console, I get this error message:

e-data-server-ui-Message: Unable to find password(s) in keyring (Keyring reports: No matching results)
e-data-server-ui-Message: Key file does not have group 'Passwords-Exchange'

I got the same error message for my Google calendar (though the missing group was 'Passwords-google' instead of 'Passwords-Exchange') when I cleared out the keyring. But after I entered my password for it the one time, it never prompted me again.

If I run 'Application' -> 'Accessories' -> 'Passwords and Encryption Keys' (/usr/bin/seahorse), after I enter my Exchange password into Evolution, it shows a password entry with name: "exchange://myusername;<email address hidden>/", and it has the correct password saved. Even if I close Evolution, this password entry still shows up in seahorse. However, if I start evolution back up again, the password is removed from seahorse (until I respond to the password prompt, at which point it show back up in seahorse). The Google Calendar password never disappears from seahorse.
