I meant in gnome-keyring. Can you see the password in the keyring
manager?

So evolution can't speak to gnome-keyring. As it started appearing after
2.28 upgrade, I'm assuming you already logged out (and/or rebooted
maybe?) few times before reporting? 

It seems that evolution can't talk to gnome-keyring, but I'm not sure if
it's an evolution or a gnome-keyring (or dbus or whatever) problem.
