[Evolution] where is password stored?

If I do the following:
* Exit evolution.
* Reboot Linux into init level 3.
* rm -rf ~/.evolution ~/.gconf/apps/evolution
* Switch to init level 5, and start evolution
* Re-create from scratch my IMAP account
Evolution never asks me for a password. It somehow still knows the
password from before, and I can access my IMAP email. How is this
possible, if I completely removed the ~/.evolution and
~/.gconf/apps/evolution directories before X (and therefore gconfd)
started? Even stranger is the fact that Evolution *does* prompt me to
accept the self-signed SSL certificate on the server again... but the
password it somehow remembered from before.
