Description Claudio Saavedra 2007-11-08 13:28:54 UTC
This is a silly evo feature that breaks my work everytime my mailbox is over 90% of quota. I understand that the imap alerts should be shown to the user, but I don't need evo to be telling me with a really obstructive dialog that I need to cleanup my mailbox.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Work on your preferred text editor in your thesis, that you should deliver in a month.
2. Wait for evolution to check your e-mail in your over 90% of quota mailbox.
3. In front of your text editor you see a small dialog saying "unexpected server response: IMAP: mail@mail.mail:Mailbox is at 90% of quota".
4. Click on the OK button to close the dialog and go back to your work.
5. Instead of being presented with your work, suddenly the evolution main window takes the focus. 
6. You go back to your work but the dialog is presented again.
7. Go back to 2 for two or three times.

Pretty please, with sugar on top, implement a better UI for that. Whatever it is, I just don't want it to interrupt my work, or the movie I'm playing. If I coul voluntarily disable it ("[ ] Do not show this again during this session") I'll be really, really happy.

a simple gconf call and a dialog shouldn't be that hard to code, i guess. patches accepted :)
