Thanks, Milan. And thanks for your work on Evolution. It's a great email 
client, by far the best of the many that I have tried.

[Evolution] Open links in the background?

2021-12-13 Thread Tim Folger via evolution-list
When I click a link in an email message I'd like Web (my default browser) or 
Firefox to start loading the link in the background while the Evolution window 
remains in focus on the screen. This is the default behavior in Thunderbird, 
for example. But when I click a link in Evolution the desktop focus shifts to 
the browser instead of remaining with Evolution. Is there any way to keep 
Evolution in focus when clicking on links within emails? Thanks in advance for 
any advice.
