Include More Information about New Mail in Growl Notification
Growl Notification should indicate more information about the new email.
I have most of my email sorted using server side filtering, and then I access it through IMAP. This means that a lot of my new mail, mostly from mailing lists, arrives in a variety of different folders. I also have both my personal and work email accounts set up in Postbox.
So with the 40 or so mailing lists between those two accounts, it would be useful to have some information in the growl notification about where the new mail actually is. Currently, the only way I can find out is by clicking on the growl notification, which is not always convenient for me to do right away.
I'd like to see the following information included:
* Sender
* Subject
* Email account title
* Folder name

Inappropriate?and how about the ability to disable the growl notification completely in the message filter -- that way i can turn off notifications for messages that are sorted to folders or the trash.

this is one of the best points
-
Yes I sort mailing lists into sub folders and some of them I dont care about seeing a growl message for since they come in so often -
Inappropriate?Yes, it would be nice if this could be configured by folder.
I'm definitely not interested in getting notifications for mails that the server put into the Spam folder. -
Inappropriate?It would also be nice if it gave the first like of the email (like Gmail notifier).

Inappropriate?I just would at least like to see the subject of the message.
I am a developer and I go crazy without it since I don't know if the email was a new sale, a support request, spam, etc
I’m hopeful
