Remove “Set Up Mail” and other entries from the message indicator?

In Ubuntu 11.10, how do I remove the Chat, Broadcast and Set Up Mail... entries from the messaging menu?

I tried blacklisting them by symlinking (say, ~/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist/empathy to /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/empathy) but that didn't do anything...

Has the blacklisting method changed? Do I have to use other application names?

    @nitstorm I'm not so sure, since that question seems specific to an older version of Ubuntu using Evolution. 11.10 now comes with Thunderbird by default. Also, note that the accepted answer there did not work for this asker. – Knowledge Cube Oct 15 '11 at 19:42

    @jfoucher: Have you tried just removing the applications from /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/? @Warriorking64: Thought the accepted answer in the linked question asked the user to remove the file from the above directory – Nitin Venkatesh Oct 15 '11 at 19:49
  • @nitstorm On a second look, you're right about the answer. I must've just misread something. – Knowledge Cube Oct 15 '11 at 19:52
  • What does running cp /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/* ~/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist/ do? For me it removes all the items except Chat. – Isaiah Oct 15 '11 at 20:09
  • Yes @Dor, that did the trick for everything except chat. The symlink method seems not to work anymore. And the Chat item is still here... – jfoucher Oct 16 '11 at 04:39
