[Bug 879305] Re: POP "Leave messages on server" now requires "Days"

 

Marked bug 877534 as a duplicate of this here because this bug is a
little clearer; so I just linked the upstream bug report too. This is
fixed upstream in a small patch that's worth SRU.

See http://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-
server/commit/?h=gnome-3-2&id=74b73302f3078a4e4e75ca98f5b73e96b01713a7

Marking In Progress now.

Title:
  POP "Leave messages on server" now requires "Days"

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Unknown
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “evolution” source package in Oneiric:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Evolution 3.x has changed in the POP Receiving Options to have the
  "Leave Messages On Server" selection linked to the "Days" value. In
  Evolution 2.x (and probably previous versions) these options were
  separate.

  This is very confusing for users who want *all* their POP messages
  left on the server with no day filtering, and seems non-standard when
  compared to previous Evolution versions and just about every other POP
  client that I have encountered.

  If the "Leave messages on server" option is selected, then the "Days"
  option should also be required to enabled, not left permanently
  enabled as if the current situation.
