Vish (vish) has assigned this bug to you for evolution-indicator in ubuntu:

Binary package hint: evolution

I have two inboxes setup in Evolution ('Canonical' & 'Personal'). In the
top panel menu (the envelope icon next to the date/time), there are menu
options (with an unread count) for each of the inboxes. When you select
one of these it brings Evolution to the front, but doesn't focus on the
inbox you selected.

Test case:

1.) Set up Evolution with two accounts
2.) Open Evolution
3.) Select (for example) 'Deleted Items' of your 'Personal' inbox.
4.) Minimise Evolution
5.) From the top-panel menu, select 'Work' (or whatever your 'other' inbox is called) from the menu
6.) Note that the selected item in the left-hand menu is still 'Deleted Items' of 'Personal'

I admit that is not *necessarily* a bug, but I do see it as a serious
usability issue. If I'm checking my unread email in my work inbox, then
the envelope turns green to tell me I have unread messages - I want to
go to the top-panel menu, select the 'Work' inbox (which has '1' unread
against it) and I want Evolution to drop me in that Inbox. Otherwise I
don't see the point of these menu options other than to display the
unread counts.
