This functionality stopped working for me right after upgrading to Natty. I have a POP3 account. The attached patch fixes the problem for POP3 mailboxes and (unrelatedly) also works around the lack of XDG sound support in notify-osd (if you use this patch and install the sound- theme-freedesktop package, you will get a sound on new mail).
Note that the patch is not meant to be correct or general. Also note that it is just sad (to say the least) to find that two major desktop functionalities (having a sound on new mail and having the new mail indicator work for POP3 mailboxes) are broken after upgrading a major operating system (Ubuntu) to a major release (Natty). As a sort of relief, having a sound on new mail was already broken in previous Ubuntu release(s?), since notify-osd simply lacks the relevant implementation. ** Patch added: "evolution-indicator-0.2.14-fix-notify-and-sound.diff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-indicator/+bug/444630/+attachment/2117232/+files/evolution-indicator-0.2.14-fix-notify-and-sound.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444630 Title: does not list any messages anymore -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
