           Summary: Default mail application dialog is responsive, but
                    clicking on buttons does not work
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evolution
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: nikal at nucleus.com
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


I somehow managed to set it up so the evolution that I was running was not
considered the default application: try running both evolution-2.4 or evolution
in a terminal, when the other is set as the default application.

Evolution will then correctly pop up a dialog informing me that evolution is not
the default mail application, and asking me if I would like it to be, and giving
me a checkbox to make sure that it always asks this question.

The dialog is responsive in terms of clicking the buttons provide the
appropriate visual clues (button is depressed while the mouse button is down,
and unpressed afterwards). The check box can be toggled on and off, but nothing
ever happens.  No matter how many times I click on the OK button or the other
one (forget it's name now), it doesn't do anything.  The dialog sits their
patiently, daring me to make it work.  I end up having to kill the evolution
process from the command line to get rid of it.
