By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description wofgdkncxojef 2017-08-22 15:56:21 CDT 
kmail forces you to use tdewallet even when you don't want it.
If you haven't installed tdewallet, kmail will harass you in installing it.
Already the user need to go find what to install and find out what it is.
Then the user need to know, that he can tell kmail to store the passwords in the wallet, without a master password and always allowing kmail to access it.
You can find users on forums complaining about this unnecessary complexity.

The default should have been, for kmail to simply manage it's passwords it self, no master password. Advanced users can install and configure tdewallet if they need it.
