It might be worth considering some useful defaults, I consider email with my email address in the To field to be more important than emails to me in the cc or bcc fields. I also consider emails from mailing lists to not be worth immediate notification. Although Evolution doesn't have any mailing list handling yet, so I don't know how feasible it is. I agree on the Contacts infrastructure, more work on social contacts and cross data contexts would go a long way to putting Ubuntu above and beyond any other operating system.
