This notify facility is something that I had _NO_ involvement with in getting set up. This has got to be something native in the OS -- and not a TDE "thing". Yet it's seems to be "standard" enough that TDE can effect the display of those new mail messages.
I forgot to mention that there is a dbus notifications daemon in TDE (and this is how I learned all about this). This daemon can be used to display notifications, but I have not seen any usage of it (except in such cases like yours, where you send message from command line or so). I found out that each application handles the messages itself (it is addressed on dbus). It could be I am wrong and if someone knows better, please, let us know.
