[evolution-patches] Proposed UI fix: HIGification of mailing list actions plugin (#323952)



I think the various menu items supplied by the mailing list actions
plugin need some improvements before the UI freeze:
(i) they could all potentially be regarded as command items that require
further input, and hence require trailing ellipsis characters (see
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/menus-design.html )
(ii) menu items should have header capitalization (see
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/design-text-labels.html#layout-capitalization
)

Attached is a patch to fix; OK to commit? (with a ChangeLog entry)
