I'd just like to report that this bug is still in effect. I just installed mail-notification in my Gutsy laptop and am seeing 100% CPU usage. I haven't experienced it often enough to identify a pattern yet, it just seems to kick in after running mail-notification for a while. I haven't had a chance to try the "-u" option yet.
This makes mail-notification much less useful, unfortunately, and there sadly seems to be few options for well-integrated mail notification under Gnome.
