Hi,

currently it is possible to solve the task in the short description, if
1. a filter is created
2. action "pipe through program" is activated
3. a proper program has been found that notices the user, e.g.
> kdialog --msgbox "You've got mail from someone@internet.com"

It would be more convenient to have an additional action like "notification" or a hint in the task bar.

I don't think a lot of users want to have this and the user who want this, can manage in the way you describe it...
