Description spark 2006-05-15 11:53:30 UTC 
When selecting "Mark messages as read" in a folder that has subfolders a dialog appears asking whether to also mark messages in subfolders as read.

The text at the moment is a bit confusing -- it should probably just say something like "Mark all messages in subfolders as read?" with buttons "Mark as Read" "Don't Mark as Read". There is probably no need for a Cancel button (in fact it confuses things).

The HIG also recommends no title text.

Title text is not removed as suggested by spark because i think the dialog box should have a title,and the title seems appropriate.

hmm... what am i missing? evolution 2.7.4, i have "mark all read" plugin enabled. i go to a folder containing unread messages and containing a subfolder with unread messages. i choose "folder > mark all messages as read". i get no popup window at all - is there a gconf key that i have not found under /apps/evolution/mail/prompts ?
can somebody clarify this please?

ushveen: spark complains also about the <_primary> which perhaps should be "Mark all messages in subfolders as read?"
i hope that the default answer (= keyboard focus) is set to NO?

apart from that, please do use proper english. "Dont" is not acceptable, and "Don't" is also very bad. please use "Do not".
