Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution
when first setting up Evolution Mail (Messaging Menu -> Setup Mail), a user creates a local entry with a custom name. There is a checkbox [User] can tick for "make this my default account". when account setup is complete, and the mails start synchronizing, there is an unexpected Account with all its folders which appears in the folder list on the left: "On This Computer" Before i ask about the purpose of "On This Computer" in Evolution, i'd rather suggest its removal. ..unless of course we want to revert to using a local mail server as Desktop notification system ;) Looking at my Account Tree on the left, i have a complexity that exceeds my comprehension: 1) "On This Computer" - Inbox - Drafts - Junk - Outbox - Sent - Templates - Trash 2) MyGmail - Inbox - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder called [GMAIL] - All Mail - Drafts - Important - Sent Mail - Spam - Starred - Trash - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - Junk - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder - Trash - an IMAP folder - an IMAP folder 3) Search Folders - Unmatched needless to say, today is the first day i'm actually going through this entire tree without angering myself too much to ever reach the bottom. There should be a way to put folders like "Junk", "Drafts", "Outbox", "Sent" and "Trash" on top just below the "Inbox" folder in my "MyGmail", instead of hosting them under "On This Computer". They also shouldn't be sorted alphabetically, but in sequence of most frequent access. If this is an unknown, then one could employ a technology to track the frequency of usage periodically, say once a week, and re-order the folders accordingly, if the statistical value difference exceeds a certain threshold. ** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/694597 Title: can't remove "On This Computer" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
