Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2007-01-22 15:27:37 UTC
I've recently started filling up my mailbox quota.  According to evolution I've hit 90% of my quota, in fact.  I think it's great that evolution warns me about this, but it does it way too frequently.  Any time I do anything that talks to the mail server the dialog pops up again (switching messages in a folder makes it pop up, emptying the trash makes it pop up, switching folders makes it pop up).

This may be because the imap server is configured to report the quota warning after every operation--I don't know.  It would be nice if evolution handled it a bit better though.

Yeah, it's the IMAP server being chatty.  We're working on a less intrusive way of handling this for Evolution 2.14 / GNOME 2.22.

Right, it's included in gnome-2-22 and based on the code, it should be hidden in the status bar, not shown as a popup dialog, now on.
