There are few reasons I didn't do this when coding the notify window
changes.  Here they are in order:

1 All my mail goes to the inbox - so does my clients'

2 I didn't think of it

3 I have no need to do it

4 It would be slower

6 The notify window is small and space is at a premium

This said if someone wants to do it by all means go for it ... this is
open source :)
