Matthew, thanks for the reply.

I have been able to get Gnome Keyring to work. A couple of files in ~/.kde/env and Keyring starts at login and works fine. I can even use the Keyring Manager to manage keys (or Keyrings). The only problem I have now is with Mail Notification. It works great with my IMAP accounts, but when I try to enable the Evolution account I get this error...

(mail-notification:9119): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon for stock: Icon 'evolution' not present in theme

It doesn't seem like an error that would prevent Mail Notification from working, but that's just what it seems to be doing. Any idea how I can past this last hurdle?

I know Evolution has a mail-notification plugin, but the one from Jean-Yves Lefort is much more configurable and has more info in it's pop-up.

Thanks,
Rick
