Hm... the progress seems to have stalled. Meanwhile, the default Thunderbird 17 on Ubuntu does not light up the blue envelope for meeting invites (!) nor any kind of mail that is relevant to me and I've been CC'd on. This is using the ExQuilla addon to provide Exchange backend support.

As described by Chris Coulson, a message highlights the menu if: "- The message is sent with high-priority OR - The message is flagged (by a filter) OR - The message is addressed directly to the recipient (eg, not CC) AND the message is not low prioirty AND the message wasn't automated AND the message is not from a mailing list." This is good behavior for some people, but not for others, e.g. ViViD: "In my personal case, no message received through Thunderbird lacks importance. Since I hide the launcher by default, many mails go unnoticed for a time and I find myself randomly mousing over the launcher to check mails." To suit more people, Thunderbird should contain a setting for which messages highlight the messaging menu. One option should be to highlight messages if they are from one of your contacts. This setting needs design, and then proposing (and maybe implementing) upstream.
