Because the default evolution is not easy for me, I can only find a method to replace it. However, because the evolution is integrated in the system, it is a little troublesome to replace it.
First, open the terminal and enter the following command to uninstall evolution:
Sudo aptitude remove Evolution
Then install Thunderbird:
Sudo apt-Get install Thunderbird
At this time, the installed Thunderbird should be in the English version. To facilitate use, you need to install the Language Pack:
Choose system> System Management> New Software Package Manager, search for Thunderbird-locale-ZH-CN, and Mark and install the software package.
The following operation is to integrate Thunderbird into the system, that is, to configure it to the "envelope" icon drop-down menu (indicator applet) in the upper right corner:
Sudo gedit/usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/Thunderbird
Then write down the following:Code:
/Usr/share/applications/Thunderbird. Desktop
Save and close.
In this way, the basic configuration is complete, but the Thunderbird does not have the message prompting function. We need to install a plug-in for it to implement this function.
First, we need to install the relevant package:
Choose system> System Management> New Software Package Manager, search for libpolicy-bin, and Mark and apply the package.
If you do not install the package, the following message is displayed: "To see Notifications via libnotify, The libnotify-bin package needs to be installed. please install this package via system-> Administration-> Synaptic Package Manager."
Next, download the following two plug-ins:
Indicators for Thunderbirds 1.1:Https://www.bubto.com/2010/libnotify_popups-0.2.1-tb.xpi (found to give two links are not found, only this can download)
Minimizetotray plus:Https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/2831/
The second plug-in is designed to minimize Thunderbird and not display it on the taskbar. (Maybe the functionality of the second plug-in failed because I used the Dock)
Installation Method:
Open Thunderbird> Tools> Add-ons> install and select the file with the downloaded extension of xpi.
After installation, restart Thunderbird to see the changes in the indicator applet.
Finally, to delete the original evolution from the indicator applet, you can add the Thunderbird method, that is:
Sudo gedit/usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/Evolution
And then clear the code.
PS:The options in other indicator applets can be replaced by this method.
