[Bug 37474] The patch seems to work

[Bernat Tallaferro]

Sorry, I forgot to add that the patched mail-notification package seems
to work well on my Dapper system.

I can monitor my Evolution 2.6 Inbox with no trouble.

However, there is something else to have into account, and that is that
a bug in libbonobo, which mail-notification uses, can lead to crashing
bonobo applications  in the following scenario:

when mail-notification is running but evolution is not, mail-notification tries to contact evolution every second. Quoting the mail-notification developer:
<quote>
Because of the bonobo-activation bug, each contact
attempt causes the bonobo-activation-server process to leak out one
file descriptor. Eventually bonobo-activation-server exhausts all the
available file descriptors and bad things start to happen.
</quote>

So that basically means that until the libbonobo bug is fixed, it is not
good to have mail-notification running when evolution is not running.
However, when both are running, there is no trouble at all.

This has been already reported here:
