At the risk of sounding like I'm hawking a software product, I use
PowerPro in combination with TB!'s ability to run an external program
via filters to set up various colored "flags" to show on screen
depending on which folder mail has arrived in.  These flags can be
whatever size you'd like, I keep mine very small and discrete.  I have
then programmed them to either take me to my virtual desktop where TB!
resides with a right click, or simply reset the flag on a left click.
Works wonderfully for me as a mail notification system.

The only workaroud I can think of is to make all the messages filtered
out from Inbox made automatically read, but that's not the best way...

The problem with this is that the bat keeps on flapping. I believe that what
is desired is for the icon to stop moving if the new messages are not in the
mailbox, but have been filtered to a different folder.

I haven't found anything that does this BTW.

Try  to  use  MailTicker  instead. Tip: you can move it mostly off the
screen  so  only  a  small black sqaure will appear and will not crowd
your screen.
