Re: [Evolution] Disable the message pop-up alarm

[Jim Arner <jarnersr wyomerc com>]

Thanks, fixed.

I had looked in 'Preferences', didn't think of looking in 'Plugins'.

I'm quite new to Evolution - I had been using a Windows-based e-mail client
(TheBat!) running under WINE.  But, the POP protocols were recently removed from
the latest versions of WINE.  20+ years of using TheBat!, still learning the
ins/outs of Evolution.

Thanks again,
Jim
