I agree that this would be nice. Right now my broken workflow looks like this. 1. Be notified by notify-osd of a new message (no subject sender or elipsized body included). 2. Click on Evolution server in indicator-applet. 3. See "urgent hint" for evolution in taskbar (evolution is in another workspace). 4. Click task bar evolution item, evolution window is activated/focused (workspace is switched). 5. Scroll down messages list. 6. Select new mail.
With the mail-notification package, I was able to see the subject and sender, and immediately show the message, delete it or mark as read. -- Open latest message instead of Evolution window when clicking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353007 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Indicator Applet Developers, which is the registrant for Evolution Indicator. Status in Evolution Indicator: Invalid Status in Indicator Applet: Invalid Status in “evolution-indicator” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When the user clicks on the indicator after receiving email, Evolution comes to the foreground. Mail-notification has a nice option to open the latest message instead, in a single message window. This should be either default or optional in incicator-applet. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
