Mail-notification mail popup will not show popups in Kubuntu 7.06 as well. Mail-notification seems to be working as it starts when clicked on and show the options screen. It also haves the mail symbol on the system tray and will show the mail in a bubble when the mouse pointer is floating over.

I made sure to have "Enable message popups" clicked, and it still does not work. I also get no popup when clickong on the "Test messages" box at the bottom. I have tried every combonation on the message popups screen.

In the console I typed "mail-notification -p" and recieved the following:

scott@Kubuntu:~$ mail-notification -p
