On a Mac, Thunderbird notifies you when new e-mail is received by flagging the TB icon in the Dock. I think it's called "badging the app icon", which you can disable in SysPrefs/Notifications, if you want. I find that pretty handy. But is there any way to wake the display screen when e-mail is received? If my display screen is asleep, I'm not going to notice any badged app icon. If I see my screen pop awake, I'd be able to know that e-mail has arrived.

Thanks, that's a good idea. When I do that, and my display is asleep, when I get an e-mail a you-have-mail "notification banner" pops up in the upper right hand corner. That would do the trick, but the banner disappears in ten seconds, leaving one with a sleeping blank screen! Now, I *can* adjust the length of time of these banners, but when my screen is awake, and I'm using it, I don't want these banners cluttering it up.

I guess what I need is something that awakens my screen if there is a notification banner. That's not a TBird issue, so I'll look elsewhere for that.
