also, take a look at bug #64947
It describes what I'd like to do to the current code and interfaces to make
adding another biff listener easier and our code cleaner.
it's not too much work, and when complete, all you'd have to do is implement a
simple interface and register as a member of a certain category.
if we don't fix #64947, you're going to find yourself duplicating the code in
nsStatusBarBiffManager.cpp.
you'll implement a nsIFolderListener, register with the "mail session service" as
a listener on the "BiffState".
