I use Kubuntu 17.04 with akonadictl 5.4.3 Each time I boot Kubuntu a dialog box says,

"akonadi_imap_resource.2 (or kontact) has requested to open the wallet 'kdewallet'

I enter my password and the dialog box goes away. How can I set up akonadictl or kontact to login automatically?

    it is logging in automatically. Your passwords are stored in the encrypted keyring (kwallet) which has to be unlocked by you entering your password – ravery Oct 07 '17 at 10:29
  • Is it possible to set up so that I don't have to enter my wallet password. Or is this not advisable. A link to current good security practices might be useful. – Geoffrey Wheeler Oct 07 '17 at 13:57

    The good security practice is to have all passwords stored in an encrypted wallet which can only be unlocked by you entering the password at the terminal. I don't know the exact procedure, but it is possible to set a passwordless keyring. – ravery Oct 07 '17 at 17:44
  • That's a good enough answer for me. I'll stick with one wallet password. – Geoffrey Wheeler Oct 08 '17 at 08:28
