Obviously this could be a solution:
,----
| (defun gnus-notify-if-new-news-arrived()
| "are there new unread mails in `the' Group?"
| (if (nnmail-new-mail-p (gnus-group-real-name "INBOX"))
| (call-process "your-notify-program"))) ;
|
| (defun my-gnus-get-new-mail ()
| "Fetch new mails at group-level x only."
| (when (gnus-alive-p)
| (let ((gnus-verbose-backends 1)
| (gnus-verbose 1)
| (win (current-window-configuration)))
| (unwind-protect
| (save-window-excursion
| (save-excursion
| (set-buffer gnus-group-buffer)
| (gnus-group-get-new-news 3) ; x ->group-level
| (gnus-notify-if-new-news-arrived))) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
| (set-window-configuration win)))))
|
| (gnus-demon-add-handler 'my-gnus-get-new-mail 7 nil) ;time
| (gnus-demon-init)
`----
the nnmail-new-mail-p seems to work AFAI was able to see so far.
I have also the idea of renaming the title of the (x)emacs main-window,
which will be visible when the program is minimized in the
taskbar I think (instead of `your-notify-program'). Title with the number of unread messages.
Greetings
