Bugzilla Bug 213465

mail-client/mail-notification-5.0 has been in the tree for ~2 months without
reported bugs and it also has better compatibility with the now-stable
evolution-2.12 series.

But sometimes, when it detects no network connection, it eats up the CPU.
I have to click on "Update" to make things back to normal.

I haven't seen this behavior despite connectivity to one of my mail servers
being spotty recently. Have you filed this as a bug somewhere?

No, not yet. But I found this.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/mail-notification/+bug/182923

If I remember well, older mail-notifications had the same issue.

I forgot to mention. I'm using mail-notification to monitor one IMAP, one Gmail
(pop3) and one other POP3 account.

ppc stable

Balazs, you may want to report this also on the upstream bug, so that the
mail-notification maintainers have more information to see a pattern. Given
that this problem is also present in currently stable versions and seems to
affect only few people I think we should still stabilize mail-notification 5.0.

so x86 stable

It's okay.

That looks like a missing dependency on scrollkeeper. I've just fixed that in
CVS. Thanks!

you should add a useflag + dependency for net-mail/fetchyahoo and disable
support for live hotmail until getlive
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/getlive/) gets added to portage.

right now the gui shows support for both yahoo and hotmail by default but
neither works.

sparc stable, closing, Ruper please open a new bug

rupert, I agree with Raúl that you should have opened a new bug for this. In
any case it's no longer needed now as I've just added yahoo support with
mail-notification-5.0-r1. I haven't added a hotmail use flag since getlive
isn't in the tree.
