Maybe this would be mostly for myself, but; if another would like to see this then maybe they can add to it for other opinions.
As an extra, after thought, why not give the user an option for that 'tattle-tale' message alerter to float around the boundary of the screen
instead of just leaving it in one place. With so much being placed on
these screens especially a laptop it is/could be over some info you are
reading. Give an option of display time of 0.5 sec. per position or
more, if you like my permission is granted. Some of us 'Hide Status
BAR' and placing it there could also hide it or be over icons that may be filling
the status bar.
Or maybe just have it move back and forth across the top of the screen as an eye catcher that mail has arrived that could also be added as an option under 'Tools/Options (Alt+F10)' and entered in the area for incoming mail.
Thank you Mr. Harris for this wonderful powerful client that is more flexible than a 'rubber band' and still evolving
