The processes that fetch mail (transport agents) are independent of the GUI 
that shows them. This is much like, for example, mutt does (mutt is just the 
GUI).

One of the advantages of this is that if the transport agent crashes, 
Kmail/Kontact does not. Or should not ;-)

Actually there must be a way to tell KWallet or the transport agents to just 
be called once (I guess i'ts a kwallet config), the other transport agents 
will use the openend kwallet session. You of course have to allow them to use 
KWallet always.

I know this works because I have it seted up like this in both my machines :)

If you think things can be impproved, please follow instructions below to open 
a wishlist bug upstream. Thanks!

The bug you reported is a KDE bug. Please report it via
Help -> Report bug... menu item of the respective application
or by visiting https://bugs.kde.org/ and following instructions
to report a new bug.

Debian Qt/KDE maintainers do not have resources to deal with
non Debian-specific bugs and therefore it is unlikely that
your bug will be solved if you do not report it to KDE developers
directly (unless it is/has been reported by somebody else).

Whenever you open a bug report on the KDE bug tracking system, or 
you find that the bug has been already reported on it, you can couple 
both this Debian bug and the KDE bug together by sending the mail with 
the text below to cont...@bugs.debian.org (replace KDE-BUG-URL with 
the address of the bug report on https://bugs.kde.org/)
