Description Michael Wolf 2004-11-09 18:14:32 UTC 
I have evolution to talk to two imap servers.  One of them happens to be
down.  Every 10 minutes, evolution polls that unavailable server, and
fails, and pops up a window telling me that it failed.  

Every 10 minutes, I'm distracted from more important work.

Please don't pop up windows all the time.

turn off automatic mail checks, you've obviously configured evolution
to distract yourself on purpose.
Comment 4 Michael Wolf 2005-02-21 19:30:15 UTC 
Beg pardon?
Comment 5 André Klapper 2005-07-16 19:20:45 UTC 
this is a duplicate, because if there are errors, there are errors.
only thing one can worry about is that there's a popup you have to click away,
and that's what bug 247373 is about. therefore closing.
