I wanted notifications on my MacBook for new mail arriving, like I get on Windows and Linux, so went searching for something that would fit the task. As I’ve already got Growl running and providing notifications for everything else, it made sense to use:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/4634

This is stated as compatible with Firefox and Thunderbird. You can see it in action with a screenshot of it telling me I’d completed a download of something in Firefox. One grumble I’ve got is that the Thunderbird notifications aren’t very descriptive, only showing the subject rather than the sender too. Perhaps they can fix that in a newer version?! Current version is 1.0.2, don’t get the older version of 0.3 or such as I made the mistake of at first, it appeared first in the Google results.

Let me know if you get it working!

More shameless plugging, go there after you’ve gone to the-iBlog.com!

Awesome.

For the crawlers, that’s iPhoneSDK.co.uk

Peace out and bananas.

Head on over to Oli’s blog, it’s generally interesting and awesome!
