[Linux] How can I see if there are new messages without opening Thunderbird?

Hi folks

I'm working on Linux Fedora (20) and am wondering if there's any way to see if I have new emails without opening Thunderbird again. I usually have Thunderbird minimized and when a new email arrives, I get a desktop notification, which is great. But - if I'm away from my computer for a minute and an email arrives, I'll often not see it until the next one comes in.

On mac, the thunderbird icon would get one of those +1 badges. Is there any way to achieve this? For example have the title of the Thunderbird window tile change from "Inbox - Mozilla Thu..." to "[2] Inbox - Moz..." - or just leave the notification until I click it away.

Thanks for any tips.

Cheers

To my knowledge Thunderbird does not provide these features by default. You could use the Firetray add-on to achieve the same, though.

Thanks for your reply Fabian, the add-on sounds promising! I'll try it out on Monday and let you know if it solves my problem.

in windows it puts a new mail icon in the notification area. I have not used Linux in a couple of years, but I recall KDE having a notification area, so I assume the same happens in Linux
