 What does the extra +b1 mean?  How do I recreate the i386 build of
 mail-notification?

It's a 'binary Non-Maintainer Upload' (binary NMU). The package was rebuilt
without any changes to the source code, often to make sure
that a it is built with the latest correct library dependencies. Check the
package's changelog.Debian for the exact reason why it was rebuilt.

 
 thanks,
 Tim

the +b1 is a binary-only NMU (http://wiki.debian.org/binNMU)
Simply use the source version 3.0.dfsg.1-7 to rebuild.
