If the pop-up is supposed to be a pop-under, as it seems, then it will go unnoticed though, because if people aren't staring at their taskbar tray, neither they are staring at their window list. > Are you being intruded when your > e-mail program notifies you in a persistent window that new mail is > ready (and maybe even bring up the program window unfocused)? In fact, thunderbird opens an old-school popup when there is no network connection, typically removing the focus from something else I was typing. It's extremely annoying. Evolution on the other hand, which is a gnome program, does not do that. The non-intrusiveness is why I like gnome.

In fact, it's a pop-under, and it's in the way anyways, especially when somebody else is with me at the pc. However, a BIG difference between pidgin and update-notifier is that if I close the pidgin window without even reading it, I can reopen it later and read messages (I think this is in the default log configuration but am unsure). -- [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
