[Bug 460483] Re: The plugin should allow Evolution to close to the indicator-applet

[Vinodkumar K N]

There is a temporary way around until they fix this..

Install cGmail and use it.
And in its preferences>Advanced>Commands>Exec this command on new mails, enter "evolution --online" without the quotes..

Check the options to start application on ubuntu startup. It will start
and checks when you go online and automatically starts evolution on new
emails..

Bug description:
Among all applications currently integrated with the indicator-applet (Empathy/Pidgin, Evolution, Gwibber), Evolution is the only one without a close-to-tray functionality. This is inconsistent as it forces the user to leave it open in order to use the indicator-applet properly. Close-to-tray functionality has been implemented for Evolution before, so I guess it's possible:
