Comment 14 for bug 460483

I'd give this a much higher priority, as it really makes the evolution indicator broken under a certain scenario.

"Closing" evolution currently has the effect of silently and without warning breaking new-mail notification via a visually unrelated element in the messaging menu. A user can look at the messaging menu, confirm that message notification should work, then click a separate window, and break mail notifications. I don't believe it's clear at all that removing the mail reading UI from the screen removes the message notification behavior from behind-the-scenes. It's this sort of thing that I believe leads to a lot of frustration and confusion about the indicator applet's purpose in the Ubuntu desktop.
