Evolution wanted the passwd to the default keyring. After fooling around with gnome-keyring-manager I determined that the keyring wanted was named: default-keyring. How is one supposed to know that? Another strange thing when I created the keyring with gnome-keyring-manager it was set up with a passwd. However when I used evolution I had to create the passwd for the keyring all over again. I can't believe that I was the only one to have this problem using F8. What did the rest of your do?
