No Context Menu in Message Preview

Package: Evolution Priority: Cosmetic Version: GNOME2.2.2 1.4.6 os_details: Ximian, Inc. Synopsis: No Context Menu in Message Preview Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Shell Description: Description of Problem: Right-Clicking within the message preview pane [after cursor changes to text selection tool] (whether text is selected or not) provides no context menu for copy, or any other message function. As a side note, view headers and view source should be on this menu. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Move cursor over text in preview pane. 2. Right-Click. Actual Results: No application feedback. Expected Results: Context menu displayed. How often does this happen? Consistently. Additional Information: UI convinience in operation would dictate actions taken which affect display in location concerned should be displayed in context menu. Therefore I believe the view headers and view source should be on this menu as well as copy when text is selected (in addition to normal items available). Setting qa contact to the default for this product. This bug either had no qa contact or an invalid one.
Still valid in 1.5.7 development snapshots. - Increasing priority to Normal and adding "UI" keyword, as this is a UI issue. - Shifting Component to Mailer. - Setting version to 1.4.6, as this seems to be the version the reporter used. Still valid in 1.5.7 though. - Rescheduling target milestone.
Don't think this will happen in 2.0
this is already fixed in evolution-2.0.3.0.200412170901-0.snap.ximian. 10.1, i have tested all described cases.
