When I started using e16 (about a year ago, I think), I had problems
with the claws-mail icon in the e16 systray.  I think the claws-mail
icon would sometimes disappear (not be redrawn, I suppose).  The icon
had been working in KDE-3 and in Gnome.  I gave up and installed a
panel (lxpanel) and used the systray in the panel which always worked
fine.  I had just assumed the e16 systray was broken.  I'll try to
see if I can reproduce the problem here again.  I don't think it
consistently failed, it just seemed flaky.


Peace, James
