 To Whom It May Concern,

 Hello. First I want to thank you for making such a great product! I've
 been using Cyberduck for a few years now and I've never had any major
 problems. Even now, I'm not having a major problem, but I am concerned
 because of the alert messages I'm receiving. I've generally kept up to
 date with the latest Cyberduck releases and I've been running 4.4.3
 (14140) before the problem started occurring. Although I can't be sure the
 problem didn't start when I updated to the latest version.
 My issue is, lately (about the past couple months) whenever logging into
 any of my FTP accounts in Cyberduck I get this alert message:
 "Cyberduck wants to use your confidential information stored in '...' in
 your keychain."
 Below that it says: "Do you want to allow access to this item?"
 Then my options are: Always Allow, Deny, Allow
 I've always just been choosing "Allow", but I don't think that's a good
 idea and I'd like to clear up this issue.
 I've looked up this issue on your website and found these tickets from 5
 years ago:
 https://trac.cyberduck.io/ticket/3336
 https://trac.cyberduck.io/ticket/2878
 However, following the history of this issue, it keeps getting resolved
 with a newer version, but then it always seems to become an issue again.
 The last note on ticket 2878 is:
 "Summary changed from Password in non-default keychain are copied to
 default one to Password in non-default keychain are copied to login
 keychain"

 Please forgive my ignorance, but I don't know if this is a fix I should
 apply somehow or if it is a note intended for the programer or something
 else.

 For the past few years since I've been using Cyberduck with the same FTP
 accounts, this has never been a problem for me. My only guess is that all
 of my accounts are FTP accounts and not SFTP. Although that may apply more
 to the other issue I'm having, the "Unsecured FTP connection" alert
 message, but I'll make a separate ticket for that issue. Though both of
 these issues started at the same time.

 Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

 Thank you.

 Sincerely,
 Kevin
