[Bug 353007] Re: Open latest message instead of Evolution window when clicking

2009-11-09 Thread TonyKnott
How's the progress in the issues reported here going? It seems that this
bug should be broken in three:

1 - allow notifications to display ellipsized subjects instead of simply
X new emails

2 - allow the indicator applet to show messages themselves besides inbox
names

3 - allow the indicator applet to open messages directly instead of
requiring to open the mail client

I'd also like to mention Bug #479218 that I just reported and is
slightly related.

I agree that this would be nice. Right now my broken workflow looks like this.
1. Be notified by notify-osd of a new message (no subject sender or elipsized 
body included).
2. Click on Evolution server in indicator-applet.
3. See urgent hint for evolution in taskbar (evolution is in another 
workspace).
4. Click task bar evolution item, evolution window is activated/focused 
(workspace is switched).
5. Scroll down messages list.
6. Select new mail.

With the mail-notification package, I was able to see the subject and
sender, and immediately show the message, delete it or mark as read.

I agree, the email notification should include some sort of condensed
sender / subject / body in the case where there are few new emails (no
more than 3, I'd say). More than that, and I only want to see 5 new
emails.

2009-04-01 Thread Neil J. Patel
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.

Are there two issues here?

1) Showing some header information (sender, subject) in the applet, and
2) Opening the latest message in a message window instead of focusing
the full Evolution window?

My request was for the latter only, although it would indeed be nice to
have a little preview of what the message is about.

2009-04-01 Thread Mark Shuttleworth

Neil, this is not needed for 9.04. I agree with your proposal to engage
with the Evolution team to expose the needed information to plugins, and
would ask that you add that to the detailed plan for 9.10
notifications-and-indicators.

I would also suggest that the last n emails be exposed in the
messaging indicator on the same basis that we are exposing the last n
people who signed in in the previous 3 minutes from Pidgin. In other
words, it remains a quick way for you to respond to a specific notification.

The two use cases are similar:

 * I see a notification that Jane signed in, I open a new conversation
with Jane in Pidgin immediately
 * I see a new message from Jack, I open that message directly immediately

Both are semi-ephemeral (hey, do we need a new word there? semipheral?)
in that they allow me to respond to that event for a short while, after
that they blend into the background and I would go to the inbox and
reply to the mail there or go to the buddy list and start the
conversation from there.
