I agree that this would be nice to have, but I think this should be a feature request for karmic. Evolution-indicator already extends the functionality of the plugin it replaced, and mail-notification is actually another program that's available in the repos (not to be confused with the mail-notification-plugin that ships with evolution).
The reason that evolution-indicator doesn't so this already (and lord knows, I tried), is that Evolutions plugin api does not allow for us to get this information. We'd need to mimic mail-notification, which does some horrible stuff to get to that information (like loading in a separate instance of your mail folders into memory, afaict). I do want this functionality, but I think it's worth working with the Evolution team to do it right. Even so, if it's critical, I can spend some more time on this and try and do what mail-notification has done. -- Open latest message instead of Evolution window when clicking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353007 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Indicator Applet Developers, which is the registrant for Evolution Indicator. Status in Evolution Indicator: Invalid Status in Indicator Applet: Invalid Status in “evolution-indicator” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When the user clicks on the indicator after receiving email, Evolution comes to the foreground. Mail-notification has a nice option to open the latest message instead, in a single message window. This should be either default or optional in incicator-applet. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
