Description Felix Lemke 2010-11-28 02:19:17 UTC
Version:           2.0.89 (using KDE 4.5.80) 
OS:                Linux

In my systray applet I can see the kmail icon. But when I reseive a mail the number of unread mails isn't rendered.

Maebe it is not only a kmail problem (e.g. amarok shows the little "is playing"-icon inside the logo, even when it is stopped).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
start kmail, write yourself an eMail and wait...



OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34.7-0.5-desktop
Compiler: gcc

I too noticed this, there is no number of unread messages as an overlay.
To me it looks like KMail was ported to KStatusNotifierItem, but that should not be a problem since

void KStatusNotifierItem::setOverlayIconByPixmap(const QIcon& icon)

exists and a QIcon can be constructed from a QPixmap. But I have no idea what the code looks like so this may not be possible.
