Comment 15 for bug 387833

@Dominik George: I don't think we quite understand each other. I was merely pointing out to the other guy that it is still possible and does not require Evolution to be split into UI and back-end mail daemons. The reason being, you should be able to hide the window without destroying it.

Personally, I look forward to this bug being fixed. I only recently discovered that Pidgin could hide inside of Indicator Applet - I upgraded from Jaunty and the default setting was "Always Show Tray Icon". The usefulness of the applet would increase 100 fold if I could get Evolution out of my taskbar. This functionality in Evolution has been a long time coming.
