           Summary: Wish: show new messages "subject" and "from" fields in
                    notifications
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: MurzNN at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Current notifications that show only number of new messages are not useful!
It shows for me the text:
New mail arrived
24 new messages in murz at mymail.com/inbox

But I already see the number of unread messages in the folder via interface or
tray icon. And I receive only 1-2 new messages via IMAP, but at this time have
already 22 unread messages in folder, and the notify must show only 2 new
messages, not 24!!

And I want to see not the number of messages, but the message body and from
fields for new messages.

Look how this done in other mail programs:

Can kmail improve this notifications to show message subject and other fields
or it have some limits for doing this?
