           Summary: It is not a bug but a comment about password storage of

In Bug 48461: kmail should remember smtp password,  users asked for this feature and was implemented in kde 3.5.7 . It  is a great feature for anyone who has a short session. 

I do not log out off kde for days/weeks. So it would be good to have an option of  making kmail  not to remember  the passwords also. What I am suggesting is to have options like what gnome presents.
(atleast in the settings).

1) Store SMTP password in kwallet.
2) Remember SMTP password for this session.
3) DO not remember SMTP password. 

This would be a  very helpfull feature for  people working in a lab and not worrying about other people sending email through your smtp account
