[Bug 878941] Re: Mail Notification Plugin Doesn't Notify

 

After thinking about this for a while, I don't think it will be as
simple as just removing the is_stracciatella check.  That check should
definitely be removed, its crazy for users to have to install some
mystery package so that there evolution plugins will work.  (Especially
now that there is a real need for mail-notification for gnome-shell
ubuntu users since evolution-indicator isn't a viable replacement.)
However mail-notification needs to be disabled by default for unity
users and enabled by default for gnome-shell users (and vice versa for
evolution-indicator).

Title:
  Mail Notification Plugin Doesn't Notify

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am using Ubuntu 11.10 with gnome-shell.  I am using the latest
  evolution with the mail notification plugin turned on.

  When I get mail I expect the mail notification plugin to present a
  popup and then leave a message in the notification tray.  This does
  not always happen.  One reproducible circumstance is if I leave
  evolution open on one desktop, move to another desktop and then leave
  my mouse focus on a window on the second monitor.  (For gnome-shell
  the second monitor shared across all desktops by default).  However,
  I've noticed the behavior in other instances.
