Have you tried looking at GNOME's Panel applets? There are several mailchecking
applets, and some IM apps (e.g. GnomeICU) can embed status indicators into a
Panel. If you want, you can even swallow entire apps into a panel, overriding
the window manager.

Have a look at the gKrellm app I think you can configure it to do a mail notify, not sure about IM.

I am running gnome desktop. Is there system tray that will work
globablly for apps? I want to at a glance see If i have IM's or Email
waiting to be read. With having to have the app open on the desktop.
