Hmmmmm. That's an interesting idea. It seems a bit more complex than I'd
hoped, though, because the extension itself would need to be in charge
of any audio notifications. This particular extension uses growlnotify
(a CLI tool) to talk with Growl. As such, it's a one-trick pony in terms
Are you sure it uses growlnotify? I'm referring to:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/growlgntp-for-thunderbird/
Which uses the GNTP protocol.
I started with Mitar's "Growl New Message Notification 0.4.2":
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/growl-new-message-notification/
Since it claims compatibility with TB from 1.5-to-23.0, it seems like a
reasonable base from which to jump. It talks to Growl via growlnotify,
included in Growl 1.2.2 (the most current Growl version on Snow Leopard).
This extension for Firefox from the same author does the same.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/growlgntp/
There is a (much older) growl extension which just spawns a CLI tool to
send growl notifications, but that's long obsolete.
The GNTP stuff might be interesting to look at from the perspective of
how to trigger on various flags, but the mechanism to talk to Growl
1.2.2 is going to either be by the now obsolete protocols or via
growlnotify. I'll leave it up to others to work with implementing
GNTP-based solutions as those will benefit SM users on Lion. GNTP won't
see the light of day in Growl 1.2.2 unless somebody decides to check out
the Growl source and shoehorn the protocol into a build.
Cheers,
trane
