Hi!

The last comment is probably more a Kontact problem but is I think it is still \
important to get a intuitive and standardized behavior.

I have used my patch above since 3.4.2 and it works for me. This is the behavior \
after the patch when the tray icon is clicked:

1) If KMail is behind any other window, KMail is set on top.
2) If KMail is on top, the KMail window is hidden.
3) If KMail is on another desktop, the view is switched to that desktop and KMail is \
set on top. 4) If the KMail window is hidden, the window is restored on the current \
desktop not necessarily the same as it was hidden on.

Number 4 in the list is the reason I made the patch. If KMail was hidden it would \
always force me back to the desktop I had hidden KMail on.

Why hasn't this patch been applied? Is it because its "ugly" in duplicating code and \
a clean solution is wanted?  Anyway I had to modify the patch somewhat for >= 3.5.0, \
so if there is interest I can post the new patch also.

Kåre
