Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution
I use one folder per account where I have both sent and received emails in order to have a full threaded conversation. In order to get that, I specify the place where all sent emails should go per account and also set up a filter for mail arriving from that account to the same folder. The problem is that evolution's folder counter (the thing above all the folders) shows ie. Ubuntu 325 sent, while that's not true, some were sent and some received. The same happens with the window's title. Given that evolution doesn't have the capability to provide this extra information correctly, I think it shouldn't provide it at all. Moreover, given that both texts include the folder's name, what's the problem with showing: "Sent 3 mails", :Outbox 4 mails", and so on? The folder's name gives the meaning to the emails that are inside the folder. So, getting rid of this functionality would make the program more simple (less code) and it would make it behave correctly. It shouldn't provide information it cannot guarantee its correctness. ** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Folder mail counter should not add extra text (like sent) after the number of emails https://launchpad.net/bugs/57896 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
