GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 333722
"Meetings and tasks" settings in wrong place
Last modified: 2006-06-08 16:53:37 UTC
To change settings for Meeting and Tasks, go to Settings> Mail Preferences> Meetings and Tasks. It should be under "Calendar and Tasks", not "Mail Preferences", i.e. Settings> Calendar and Tasks> Meetings and Tasks. Other information:
This also causes a too wide settings window when using the German translation, see #312359.
the "calendar and tasks" tab under "mail preferences" does not exist anymore.
(In reply to comment #2) It does very much exist.
Preferences for Tasks and Meetings go into Edit->Preferences->Calendar And Tasks. These affect the Evolution Calendar/Task Views. OTH, mailer preferences on how calendar data is used go under Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->Calendar and Tasks. These include * what to do with iTIP mails after they have been handled * which calendars should be consulted for conflicts while accepting invitation mails. These indeed belong to the Mailer. Bug #312359 is a bad side-effect to be tackled but should not be resolved by moving it under Calendar.
So should this bug be closed? The bug was that non-mail preferences are held under "mail preferences". I don't see how this bug is resolved/notabug.
(In reply to comment #5) ^^. See comment #4
Okay, so you've explained from a technical standpoint why the options are found where they are. But from a user's standpoint, they're in the wrong place. Have I missed something?
gnome@nodata.co.uk: yes: half of our users have a technical standpoint ;-)
