Neil, this is not needed for 9.04. I agree with your proposal to engage
with the Evolution team to expose the needed information to plugins, and
would ask that you add that to the detailed plan for 9.10
notifications-and-indicators.

I would also suggest that the "last n emails" be exposed in the
messaging indicator on the same basis that we are exposing the "last n
people who signed in in the previous 3 minutes" from Pidgin. In other
words, it remains a quick way for you to respond to a specific notification.

The two use cases are similar:

 * I see a notification that Jane signed in, I open a new conversation
with Jane in Pidgin immediately
 * I see a new message from Jack, I open that message directly immediately

Both are semi-ephemeral (hey, do we need a new word there? semipheral?)
in that they allow me to respond to that event for a short while, after
that they blend into the background and I would "go to the inbox and
reply to the mail there" or "go to the buddy list and start the
conversation from there".

Mark
