Bug Description

1. Regardless of the inbox chosen from the indicator, evolution shows up the same way, it doesn't select the Inbox clicked in the indicator
2. It would be nice to have a shortcut for opening unread messages. Now the scenario is, after user sees that there's a new mail:
-click on the indicator
-click on any of the inboxes
-wait for evolution to open
-click on the inbox with the new mail
-select the folder containing the new mail
-select the message to read
It could be shortened at least by selecting on of the folders that's got a new mail from the inbox selected (-2 clicks - inbox selection and folder selection), but it would be the best IMO to have a shortcut like if an inbox has got only one unread mail, and the user clicks that inbox from the indicator applet, the message could be shown like when double-clicking it in the message list view - that way there would be no need to open the evolution gui, just the message reader window.
