Not able to start mailspring due to libsecret problem

I installed mailspring-libre but when I launched it It told me this:

"Mailspring could not store your password securely. Make sure you have 'libsecret' installed and a keyring is present. For more information visit ..."

So I went to the arch wiki and found out that I should install libsecret and gnome-keyring. I did it and then started the daemon with the command:

eval $(/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11,secrets,ssh)
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK

No errors were shown when I ran the commands, but mailspring is still showing the same problem. Did any of you have the same problem? Do you know what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
