Some, recently, the audible alert for mail arrived -- ceased.  But, if I open
Mozilla Mail and check my mail, delete stuff, read and file stuff -- close
Mozilla.  The next time I open it to check my mail -- the audible alert goes off
and the box appears down in the lower rh corner of screen telling me how many
emails just arrived -- the number from the previous visit!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Continuous result, every time I check mail.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Expect audible and # of emails whenever Mozilla automatically checks mail [1/2
hour increments].

This is the 2nd of 2 bugs recently appearing.  I'll reinstall and let you know
if they go away!

When you are not getting the alert, are you also showing new mail headers in the 
thread pane?  That is, is it a failure of notification (bug 164226), or a 
failure to check for new mail (bug 127461 or bug 189323)?

POP or IMAP mail?
