Humm... I was under the impression (I could be completely wrong, though) that if an app was on the indicator it did not get backgrounded (eg. networkmanager). I'll try to...

So, after researching this topic, here's what I have figured: 1. What I was mentioning (an indicator app, that would keep some daemon from the application in the foreground) was...

This might also be relevant: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dekko/+bug/1421923 "Dekko", and email client also had issues with notifications. We can try to solve it the same way they do... https://plus.google.com/101390620047921378812/posts Yup, Dekko is...

You're welcome! Yes, it's in interim solution... until google eventually support the Ubuntu push notifications system. When/if that happens, switching to push notifications should be rather trivial.

I think it's too early to tell. Ubuntu touch is doing better than most have anticipated, but not as well as the most optimistic predictions. If it does happen it...

@tim-sueberkrueb look [here](https://plus.google.com/101390620047921378812/posts/Aza8r3KKaND?pid=6194849549691811314&oid=101390620047921378812). Get this number up 100 fold and it **might** just happen. But that's OT. Tonight I'll research the use of `account-polld` and see where that leaves us.

@tim-sueberkrueb I think this should be what we need: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~nikwen/account-polld/imap-mails/view/head:/plugins/gmail/gmail.go I did not go deep into it... how much would it need to be modified to get hangouts notifications? Maybe...

@tdryer Thanks! I'll take a stab at that during the weekend if I have the chance. Also, @tim-sueberkrueb look here: http://nikwen.github.io/ubuntu/2015/09/17/my-work-on-email-notifications.html Notification problem and (possible) solution explained in detail.

I think this should be filed upstream, since it is also a problem in hangups itself.

There is a possible workaround for this issue: https://github.com/tdryer/hangups/issues/272 At the very least this should avoid the ugly error we get when off-line.
