I think email is such amazing piles of steaming poo that my happiness is inversely proportional to the number/rate of emails I'm getting. It simply does not scale well. And like the phone, it too easily confuses importance and urgency. Setting up mail rules requires duplicative effort, for each user, even when they have very similar ideas on notification prioritization. It's ickysauce.

Libnotify works will all the DEs I've used, and there should be - if the DE is behaving properly - a way to make notifications persistent until acknowledged.
That said, I don't think that the few people passionately advocating a default MTA here have introduced anything that wasn't said in the Change proposal discussion. Isn't there a better use for all this energy?
