Reinstalling applications will not fix things.  The configuration of
the application is in each user's home directory - and it remains even
if the application is remove [feature, not a bug].

Hi,
the dialog itself works the same as "before". When there is nothing
happening it's hidden automatically. The quick flash you see means
there is nothing going on, thus there is nothing to cancel, thus the
dialog closes itself.

I do not know how you moved your data from one machine to another, but
I'd check how you check for new messages. Especially the "Check for new
messages in all folders" in the account Properties->Receiving Options
tab, might be of an interest. Maybe you had it enabled on the previous
install and it is disabled on the new install.

With respect of restoring the previous behaviour, the only reason why
the dialog shows up on the second click (not really double-click) is to
cover users like you, whom prefer to see it. To give you a way to have
the dialog, even it's not needed as such. Do not expect to add an
option to show the dialog on the first click.
Bye,
Milan

You could revert the code changes, compile the code yourself, and
maintain the additional software complexity for years to come. :)

Well even then the double click does not work properly.

Personally, I like the popup, as the information it gives is more
informative and lasts longer!

The bottom info runs in milliseconds and you don't even have chance to
see it.

I would like to know how to reinstate this feature if anyone can tell
me?

No. If you only pull a few messages from a POP account then it's only
displayed for a moment. No change at all.

Reinstalling never fixes anything.

Because a lot of people found the popup incredibly annoying so it was
turned off. It doesn't provide any more information than is displayed
in the bottom info bar.

Presumably, rather than waste or remove the code that displayed the
popup it was switched to being displayed on double-click.

I have reinstalled Evolution, but it didn't change anything.
But if there is an existing copy of the program, perhaps a corrupted
file would not get overwritten?

In that case the popup probably doesn't get a chance to be displayed
before it closes. 

Double-clicking on the Send/Receive button does make the popup display
- I've just tried it on exactly the same version as you are using.

All that happens is that down the bottom, alongside the online/offline

In this case, it sounds like you click the Send/Receive button.

2020-11-01 Thread Bob Moore 
Hi, when I use the Send/Receive button in Evolution I used to be able
to see the mail being sent/received on all three accounts and could
cancel one/all of them.

I'm not sure whether it's because I have just upgraded to Fedora 32
from 30, but now all I see are the small text lines alongside the
'connected' icon at the bottom of the page.

If it's something that I have selected/deselected by accident I would
love to know what?

I have been unable to find how to correct this in the manual.. :-D

If anyone can shed some light on this I would be very grateful.
