Comment 3 for bug 764891

As my bug was marked as a duplicate of this one, let me just add a remark :

it's not just about making the enveloppe blink. For a non-first message in Empathy, the enveloppe is not even changing ! If you don't have the dash visible, you simply just can't see that you got a message. And even if you see the dash, the indicator for a new message in Empathy is hard to notice.

Furthermore, the enveloppe is changing with every new email. So it would be more coherent to make the enveloppe change also for every message. Otherwise the user will simply not understand what's going on.
