Now I am giving gnome another try, but Ubuntu doesn't seem to have such a gizmo available where I can find it. And looking in synaptic, nothing really strikes me as being what I want, or too vague a description to tell, and while not nearly as bad as a certain OS coming out of Redmond, trying package after trying to find the one I like can mess of the system. Oh well. Yeah, I probably will either grow to like the current evo way, or just plain forget why I thought the old way was better... But anyway, what I am looking for is some kind of notification that email has arrived, but not just any email -- evo does do that annoying ping sound and I sometimes am in a quiet enough environment to even hear it, but rather that evo's filter have put the mail in the folder that I actually do want to know about. Can you recommend a gizmo or evo option that will let me know that without eating too much screen real estate?
