Well, I had the EXACT same problems you are having, with the exception
of the POP3 password. There was a thread a few days ago about the RHN
applet that I posted. Appears it is another bug with 8.0. Here is a
TEMPORARY workaround, however:

perl /usr/share/rhn/rhn_applet/applet.py &

That will keep it there till it decides to delete again. 

I was having some additional problems. It appears that the spell
checker, when upgraded to 1.2.0 , is disabled by default now. Now, this
is not that big of a deal for me, but it was a pain in the A$$ to change
46 users evolution's spell checkers back. This is a nice upgrade, but it
appears that the installer setup phase could use some work.

There was also some weird things happening to my task bar when I
upgraded. Cant really explain it other than to say that my task bar
applets are all strange sized. With blank fields in them and the like.
And when I was messing with them, trying to fix them, KDE SEG FAULTED
once. So far a reboot has stopped that. Not sure what is up with that
yet.

Anyway, to date, I have not seen a permanent fix for the RHN applet. 

Let me know if you or anyone else has a fix for these problems.
