Ah, I see what you mean. I know with Quicksilver you can invoke an applications menubar from any other application, but I don't think there's a Mailplane specific shortcut for that.
However, if you enable the Growl notifications, it does tell you when you get a new mail, who it's from, the subject o the message, and which account it landed in. Not exactly what you want, but off the top of my head it's the closest thing I can think of.
