Hi, I see. Feel free to "announce" the module on the evolution-list, there might be people willing to test it, I guess. The best if you provide a pre-built code, of course, because not everybody is able to compile it on its own (that's basically what you said, I agree with you).

Hello Milan, Thank you for the reply! My intention was actually to maybe first gather some feedback from the more programming-inclined Evolution developer community, since the extension is still rather immature and it is unlikely that an average user would feel happy fiddling with something at such an early stage. Again, thank you very much for pointing this out and I will definitely direct the discussion properly and refrain from hijacking the official mailing list!

I know people sometimes look for a similar plugin and claim the alternatives do not work these days. > ... or through the mailing list. Ehm, do you mean this mailing list? I do not think anybody here is going to fix bugs in any third-party software. It's a bad idea to "hijack" mailing list used for the core Evolution projects development (count in evolution-data-server, evolution, evolution-ews and evolution-mapi), everything else is considered third-party and should use its own bug tracker and other communication channels. Look on it as with the evolution-on you mentioned. It's not tight to this mailing list at all and it should not be. You can subscribe to the evolution-list instead, which is meant for the users, and check messages there, in case the users would claim any problem with your plugin, but asking them to use either of these two mailing lists is not a good idea. The first answer to their claims would be: use bug tracker of your 3rd-party plugin, because it's not an official plugin and it is not maintained by the upstream/Evolution team.

[Evolution-hackers] evolution-persist: background notification extension module for Evolution
Hello all, I have just put together an Evolution extension to keep evolution running in the background after all windows are closed, since evolution-on has been unmaintained for years and is deprecated in various aspects. The preliminary project can be found at https://gitlab.gnome.org/SuibianP/evolution-persist and should be straightforward to build and install. It would be of great assistance to test it out and any feedback would be much appreciated, either via the issue tracker (preferred) or through the mailing list.
