Re: Thunderbird needs tighter panel integration

 

Surely this could be added as optional at the very least. The old 'me menu' was very different to the new 'messaging menu', maybe people would feel differently about it with the new layout and the combination of the 2 menus.

It kinda misses the point of being a 'messaging menu', when in fact it does not control email messaging. The icon is an envelope, which many users would associate with email messages as opposed to IM.

I totally agree. But this have been discussed times ago (with evolution) and it seems not every one want this.

    At present, the only use for the mail icon in the panel is to set
    up thunderbird (for email anyway). Once an account has been set
    up, it would be useful for thunderbird to check emails in the
    background, and turn blue when new emails are available. This
    would mean the user does not need to keep thunderbird open to
    check emails and justify the use of a mail icon in the panel.

    It should at least list the accounts that have already been set
    up, rather than just showing 'set up mail'.
