My damn keychain just hold keys. And it certainly doesn’t remember my address.

Navigate to /user/Library/Keychains/ (Where user is your user account)

Do a Get Info on login.keychain

Go to the Sharing & Permissions section of the Get Info window.

They should look like this:
yourusername (me)—Read and Write
(unknown)—Read Only
everyone—Read Only

If they look like that I don’t know what is wrong. If they don’t look like that change them. You will have to click on the lock in the lower right corner before you can change them.

One other thing to try if the above doesn’t help.

Go to Applications/Utilities/KeychainAccess

One the left of the window that opens highlight login. Then Edit—>Change Settings For Keychain(login)

Make sure that the first two items are not checked.
