A good enhancement for Mozilla would be to add the number of new mails to the icon allowing for a quick glance to see if mail has arrived. A good sample application is the Fire chat client. In a perfect world, each folder in the mail window should have an attribute for "Show in icon?", but I will be perfectly happy with just the Inbox Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Receive mail 2. 3. Actual Results: Unchanged icon Expected Results: Icon should have the number of new mails "overlaid" so it is easy to see.
