The password can only be saved in the wallet. If you don't want to use the
wallet, you have to enter the password each time you restart Akonadi, that is
the expected behavior.
Saving the password somewhere else than in the wallet is not supported, and
frankly I don't see a good reason to support this. Konqueror and other
applications also save their passwords in the wallet only.
When using the wallet, the password is remembered across restarts, just as you
would expect.
