perhaps there is a ppa i can try to eliminate the issue in lucid?
i am using lucid and i still have the problem, even after todays updates..
i believe they didn't include an update on evolution..

using Evolution 2.28.3 here..
@sebastien: are you using a newer version of evolution?

i also updated the bug description for better reproduction of the issue

it's not a terrible problem, but definitely a small one to solve as far as i 
can imagine..
if you know the responsible script file from the top of your head i can try fix 
it myself and report back ..

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: evolution
  
  evolution's integration into the indicator applet is a welcome step, as 
everyone i ask agrees.
- problem is: when i choose "mail" from the indicator applet drop-down menu, it 
opens the overall window of evolution, regardless whether there is already an 
open evolution window for e.g. "contacts" or "tasks".

- more confusing is the fact that, considering "contacts" and "chat" share
- the same drop-down menu column, selecting "contacts" does not reveal the
- chat contacts. this is inconsistent with what that menu entry is
- currently indicating to the intuitively navigating user..
+ reproduce:
+ 1. click the envelope (indicator applet icon for messaging services
+ 2. select "mail"
+ 3. wait until evolution opens
+ 4. click the envelope again
+ 5. select "contacts"
  
- solution could be, adding support for importing contacts from the chat app.
- pidgin-contacts are already suported
- system wide contact sharing for authorized applications would be the next 
step as proposed by the people-project, if the name "contact list" above 
empathy's contact list should not confuse the user.
+ i'm using ubuntu lucid beta, upgraded from karmic
