For some reason, Thunderbird's new mail notifications are no longer appearing at the top right of my screen. I hear the pop sound of new messages, and Unity's Thunderbird icon receives a red number indicating the number of new messages.

But no Ubuntu notifications at all.

This seems to have happened after my latest series of updates.

Other notifications are working, however.

  • Which Thunderbird Addons are installed? – Jakob Feb 20 '12 at 09:05

    Did you check settings? Edit → Preferences → General → Show an alert - maybe it changed for some reason? http://i.stack.imgur.com/elMNo.png – Jakob Feb 20 '12 at 10:09
  • I did check, yes, and it was checked. – Gonzoza Feb 20 '12 at 11:38
  • My guess is that it's a conflict with an extension. – Gonzoza Feb 20 '12 at 15:38
  • You could check this by disabling them. According to your image the 2nd, 3rd and 6th addons were original. Did you reboot meanwhile? Maybe it works afterwards. Just send E-Mails to yourself to test ;-) Possibly you could install recent-notifications to see if the system gets the message itself, and whether its a problem of notify-osd. (Don't know if this helps.) Apart from that I don't have an idea what you could do. – Jakob Feb 20 '12 at 15:56

There was some package in earlier 10.10 that made mozzila notifications show up in ubuntu. But when I upgraded it was amongst the removed and unsupported ones.

Sadly, I don't remember the name now.

EDIT: Thunderbird identificator is not compatible with thunderbird 10.02
