I have recently re-installed karmic and have gmail imap, gmail pop and other imap accounts setup and they all cause the icon to become 'black' when I have new mail.
This is with a default Ubuntu Karmic install with the default icon theme. I'd like to stress that the icon will not change if you aren't using an icon theme that supports the message-indicator. Can you confirm that your using the Humanity icon theme on Karmic or Human icon theme on Jaunty? -- indicator-applet doesn't change icon when I recieve new e-mails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/436755 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
