No, I don't know the code for KMail.  Last time I looked at it was way back in
the early days of KDE 4.  I was going to try to reimplement a feature from
KMail 3.x series that was missing.

To me, that doesn't seem to be the most efficient way to handle a new mail
notifications.  If I'm moving an email from one folder to another, that's not
new mail and I don't need a new mail notification event to trigger.  The only
time a new mail notification should be triggered is when new mail has arrived. 
That's why it's called a NEW MAIL notification.
