Here is some code-snippet that I use. It plays a should when I get
mail in certain folders. You can easily modify it so that it changes
color instead of playing a sound.
(defvar nk-gnus-beepable-groups "mail/Mailbox"
"A regexp that matches groups for which mail notification should \
take place.")
(defun nk-gnus-notify ()
"Beep if we got mail in an interesting folder."
(let ((you-got-mail nil)
(case-fold-search t))
(dolist (group nnmail-split-history)
(when (string-match nk-gnus-beepable-groups (caar group))
(setq you-got-mail t)))
(when you-got-mail
(progn (call-process "esdplay" nil 0 nil "/usr/share/sounds/phone.wav")
(ding)))))
(add-hook 'gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook 'nk-gnus-notify)
