Hi Dianne,

I've been a few days looking a way of getting if a new Email (although
is the native or GMail app), and always I read your replies.
After reading them again all, I still don't understand WHY the Email
native application can't generate an Intent to advice other
applications. Yes, there is different to receive an Email by the
native, the GMail or K9 app, but any of them could generate an Intent
advising that there is a new email.

Well, but Android native applications has not all the Intents needed.
Then, there is the needed of these "leak".

Why can be so different? What we are looking is for a list of
notifications with the information that the application "posted" on
it. I don't see so many changes by platform or device.
Or are you telling that the "Notification" is a class that the device
manufacturer can modify? Because then, the "Activity" class can be
also be changed, and no application on the market can work.

In my project case, I need to know if a new email sent by someone has
arrived, and react in that case.
Thanks.
