           Summary: Evolution doesn't show the symbolic account name with
                    pop
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evolution
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: jdorsman2004 at hotmail.com

Feature request: It would be very nice when evolution shows also the symbolic
accountname (the name I gave to the account) in the mail-retrieving box and with
error messages. 

I use freepopsd to retrieve email from hotmail, yahoo and others. Freepopsd uses
the home IP 127.0.0.1 and translates the POP request to a web-alike mail
retrieval. When I click the retrieve-all-button, a box is shown which says for
these accounts: "Server 127.0.0.1, Type pop, retrieving POP summary", but the
account name is not shown, so I cannot see which one takes more time.

In case freepopsd cannot retrieve email (this happens now and then and is
normal), a messagebox is displayed and says: "Cannot retrieve POP summary", and
I still don't know which email-account has failed.

Ubuntu 5.10
Evolution 2.4.1
freepopsd 0.0.31
