Two ideas for you to consider:

1) Is it possible to add an option to create a new
e-mail message?
2) Is it possible to add an option to check for new
e-mail messages on all or some servers?

I'm not sure if there are any tie-ins you can make to
TB to call these functions (maybe make a link with
mailto: for the compose new message, since most people
using TB-Tray probably have TB as their default mail
client)?

    Ok, I am an idiot and just saw the "Write Mail" option
    availible. I guess that leaves the checking for new mail
    messages. :)

    I´d find the "check for new e-mail messages"-feature very
    useful, combined with an animated tray icon when unread
    messages are available.

    I know this feature from The Bat! and find it useful, since
    I often don´t hear the notifying sound because of music or
    because I´m not in the room at the very moment the mail
    arrives. As soon I continue working at my PC I see the tray
    icon moving and check my mails.

    The tray icon of The Bat! is a bat which flaps its wings
    when mail is available.
    I would be satisfied if the thunderbird tray icon would just
    blink.
