Anybody still thinking about this? The current applet is almost useless in setups which check the mailstate in very long intervalls only. Yes, there are sometimes good reasons to do so.
Even better if there was a way to trigger a re-check from the shell, so one could call some user provided script from left-click which calls the mail program and then forces to re-check after it closes. Currently I use pkill -f libmailwatch in such a script to kill and restart the applet and thus force a rescan, but that's kind of ugly. Maybe catching the less deadly SIGHUP or SIGINT for this purpose could be very easy implemented without messing with the gui and translation issues. So instant rechecks after network connect events could also be realized. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580815 Title: mail watcher applet does not changes its state after left-clicking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfce4-mailwatch-plugin/+bug/580815/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
