Mail says "One row added" or whatever for the mailbox that is currently active,
whether Mail is the front app or not. Leave Mail in a mailbox that doesn't

The problem with something like Notepad is that notepad can only write text
files. This is fine if you're just looking to jot down a note or ten. Hence the
name notepad, :). MS Word is designed to let you format your text. Now, one
could use Wordpad, but that doesn't have a spellchecker. Further
