It is a software like a lot of other one. It is a software which runs a lot in the background to retrieve mails. In my opinion the function to retrieve mails or RSS-Feeds, etc. every N minutes speaks for itself.
There are a lot of other programs which run a lot in the background and therefore have a tray icon. For example Audio-Player like Audacious and Rhythmbox, Bittorrent-Clients like Transmission, Chat-Programs like Empathy and TV-Programs (to record TV) like Me-TV. Of course it is possible to minimize them. But have a look on my panel what happens when all these programs are just minimized (I'll attach a screenshot). Why shouldn't Evolution have this functionality? -- There is no intern possibility to lock evolution in the systray https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
