| If you don't use it to store your email passwords, no so much a problem,
| then. There are other password managers, etc. But you also use the
| tdewallet password to protect against changes to  your email
| configuration.
|
| Any changes in Kmail, account settings, port settings, whatever, and you
| will be asked for your tdewallet password. And, as I said before, this
| ought to be different from your other passwords, whether user password,
| admin password, or whatever.

My mail setup is unusual. I'm using ProtonMail via the ProtonMail Bridge,
which is an encryption layer that lives on my machine and encrypts
everything before it leaves the computer. I don't know if anyone else is
using it with KMail; I know that no one was when I set it up initially and
even now, a couple years later, the bridge application is not officially
supported on Linux on anything other than Thunderbird. And it has a chain
of passwords that are not understood by TDE. And a different password
manager is needed for other stuff (though a good TDE front end for KeePass
would be a useful thing; more useful, I think, than some obscure wallet
thing).

Thanks very much.
