I agree, it is able to *read* passwords from keyring.

The problem is, looking at the passwords with Application|Accessories|Passwords and Encryptions keys, I saw that I had my WPA password twice, for the same ESSID. I deleted both of them, hoping that the network-applet will write only one.

But no, it doesn't want to write. It appears in the Passwords and Encryptions keys but without the icon in the front column. I don't know the meaning of the first column, I guess an icon appears when the password is saved "forever", and it is not there when the password is saved only for the current session.

So, Thomas, delete Gajim password from keyring, logout and login, enter password, logout and login, see if you need to enter the password again... Maybe you can have a look at the icon state.
