Notmuch mail notifier applet for Gnome?

[Patrick Totzke]

Hi Albin,

This is not an answer to your inquiry, but because I looked into something similar recently for my setup I'd thought I'd
share: I used xmonad before but switched to the awesome [0] tiling WM. I hacked my solution into their wiki, including a
screensot [1].
best,
/p

I've been looking for a replacement to my mail checker that would work with gnome-panel, but so far I haven't found any. I'm sure there has to be at least one Gnome user on the notmuch mailing list, so I thought I'd ask for help.

Basically anything that would display a notification icon if a given shell command returned true would suffice, though I'd prefer something that would also display a given text (read: a short fom of the specified query and the mail count for it, something like: »personal: 10« – possibly during mouse over).
