Hi Jason,
  thank you for reporting this problem!

In order to build mail-notification with the evolution support i must
provide it with the path to evolution's source. It's the first time i
face a package that needs another's package source code.

I'll investigate how i could cleanly integrate something like that
into the debian package.

Furthermore, i've gotten evolution's debian source package and pointed
mail-notification's configure to it with the following results:
checking for the Evolution source tree directory... ./evolution-2.2.3/
checking for ./evolution-2.2.3//mail/em-event.h... yes
checking for ./evolution-2.2.3//mail/em-folder-tree.h... yes
checking for ./evolution-2.2.3//mail/mail-component.h... yes
checking for ./evolution-2.2.3//mail/mail-tools.h... yes
checking for EVOLUTION_PLUGIN_CFLAGS...
checking for EVOLUTION_PLUGIN_LIBS...
configure: Evolution not found: forcing --disable-evolution

This is not good. I don't know what's causing this yet.
Jean-Yves, any idea?¹
