Please ignore. Manually restarting gnome-keyring-daemon solved the
problem.

Could you elaborate? I'm having the same problem. Do you mean you
restart gnome-keyring-daemon each time after logging in but before
starting Evo?

Seems like it.
When you log on, start gnome-keyring-manager - you'll get access denied.
Kill the gnome-keyring-daemon and start it manually - and everything
works just fine.

I've yet to report it... and I'm not sure if it's a GNOME issue or a KDE
issue

When I log in, it's already running:

% pgrep -fl key
16028 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon -d --login
%

I killed it and then simply started Evo (without starting the keyring
daemon explicitly) and it asked for my keyring password (which is
different from my login password), followed by the password for one of
my accounts but not the other. Now I have:

% pgrep -fl key
16498 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --foreground --components=keyring
%

Not sure.
I don't use KDM. (I still use gdm)

But never the less, when I connect to the machine remotely (over SSH)
and start evolution, it starts gnome-keyring-daemon correctly and the
passwords are accessible.
