Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

In evolution 2.12.0-0ubuntu3 on gutsy, I can't configure any plugin I tried to configure. At least I know I should be able to configure the spamassassin plugin to include network tests (I was able to do that on feisty). When I press 'configure', nothing happens!

Right, some of the plugins doesn't have a configuration dialog, but the button is active, at least it should be greyed out.

Do you mean the 'the configure button is missing a mnemonic' thing? Because it's not the 'if you can't configure it, the button should be greyed out' thing. The only plugin I can configure is the one at the top: attachment reminder. No other plugin can be configured. That's a bit weird.

I can confirm that. It seems as it's not just ghosting problem. Plugins that should have some options are quiet when you press "Configure".

Sebastien: will you merge it with current version of Gutsy's Evolution and update it, or it's for Gutsy+1?

Ah, sure. But then how _do_ I configure my plugins? For example, I want
to toggle the 'use network tests' for spamassassin. Far more accurate,
but it takes ages...

Go to Edit/Preferences/Mail Preferences/Junk. The spamassassin options are there.

Huh? Since when...? Anyway, thanks!!! Sure enough, now it's only a minor
UI thingy for me as well, ;-)
