Bug Description

It would be great if the applet highlights the rows in the indicator menu that have changed and not been looked at.

For example if one has many mailboxes listed it would be interesting where exactly the new message arrived...

Is this perhaps a duplicate with bug 479218 ? Seems to have a common theme about the right mailbox...

no, this is not the same... My idea was not to open the highlighted entry automatically when clicking on the indicator-applet, but to highlight the entry itself in the menu - for example making the background a bit lighter or something equal - so I can see which of all the rows in the applet exactly draws my attention ;)

Ok. I have no particular feeling on the aesthetic here. Perhaps this should be raised on the Ayatana mailing list?
