Description Jay Thorne 2005-12-22 04:56:43 UTC
Description of problem:
My office ettiquette requires that I use the Exchange "Message Priority" for
certain issues. There is currently no way in Evolution to set these on an
outbound message. I can write a filter to set my own importance flag on inbound
message but I cannot do so for outbound messages.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.2.3-2.fc4


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Email a message
2. Look in vain for an "importance" gui element
3.
  
Actual results:
Outlook, the various web email clients, thunderbird all have available "message
priority" gui elements Why does evolution lack this very common feature?

Expected results:
Some kind of gui element to set priority

Thank you for this bug report.  At the moment, the Fedora developers don't have
time to work on this particular issue. The best way to make sure your problem
will get looked on is to report it to the authors of the program. Most 
upstream authors use a bug tracking system like bugzilla, and more people
who know the code will be looking at the bug report there.

This issue has already been reported upstream here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209002

If you want to follow what happens to the bug, you can add yourself to the
upstream report.
