If you do not give it, you get pop-up asking password for every account what is configured to Kmail. When you start Kmail, it ask Kwallet password. There are applications already using Kwallet, like Kopete, Kmail, Konversation, Amarok and Konqueror.īut, the Kwallet does not currently protect the personal files as it should.Īs example when you have a Kwallet closed.

This is about passwords, not just lockin the application for user not to use it. "Kwallet is a password reminder, not an application locker." This is just a mockup for locking the application UI itself. There is other ideas how to lock the sensitive data from being tampered. You can close it and open it again but it stays locked. I would like to see that Kwallet actually LOCKS the application totally. So this allows other person to write emails to waiting line and when I come to computer and I press "Get/Send emails" button, they get sended as well. If I do same to Kmail, I get the Kmail open and I can open any data what is locally downloaded (POP, some IMAPS settings and so on) and I can even write emails what gets sended when connection is allowed. If I do not give them, I get Kopete open and I can edit data. If I do not give it it prompts a WLM/ICQ/AOL passwords. If I have Kwallet closed and I open a kopete. There is great function to lock the session/screen (Ctrl+Alt+L for shortcut if not going trought kickoff) but it affects all use.Īnd we have great Kwallet what stores passwords for applications like kopete, kmail and so on.īut the Kwallet integration has staid somewhere middle what it really should be.
