Thunderbird 2.0 is also another example of "things libnotify can't do". It tells you that you have N new mail messages and lists some summaries and the first few lines of text, and you can click on a message in this popup and be taken directly to the mail itself. It's in Rawhide/FC7Test4 if you want to check it out. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
