There is no webmail indicator applet. I filed this bug against evolution-indicator, as that is the indicator that is shown by default on the desktop. It either should be expanded to include webmail support or should be replaced by a more generic indicator that does both.

no, webmail should create its own indicator support as every other app is
doing, example pidgin, xchat etc

The only difference is that there is no webmail application.

no, it would be a better idea to have a general mail indicator- whether it is evolution or gmail. why should one have both indicators- for webmail and evolution- if he is using gmail web interface only?
