Miguel Angel López Hernández did a patch which was sent to
evolution-patches.
You can have a look at it at

But some rework is going there i think...

That would make external email notifications irrelevant for the basic gnome desktop. Only users that specifically start using a non-GNOME email client should ever need such standalone applets, which means the GNOME desktop doesn't need them at all. Of course, distributions should probably include them anyway. Thanks. I'll shut up now. -- Gustavo J. A. M.
