multiple gmail account notifier ubuntu 13.04

Question

in 12.04 i used an app that used NotifyOSD to notify me if i got one of my three gmail accounts. and sadly i cant find it for 13.04. Both gm-notify and gm-notifier only works with 1 gmail acount.

Is there any notifier app that works with multiple gmail accounts and uses notofyOSD?

Unity Mail

With Unity Mail we can handle multiple gmail accounts. You will get an OSD notification whenever you receive a new mail showing the sender, and the subject of a mail.

enter image description here

In addition it adds a launcher icon to display the count of unread messages, integrates with the mail indicator to turn it blue, and displays a list of mails in the drop down menu there.

For newer releases (>= 15.10) Unity-Mail can be installed from the official ppa:

I tried this, but multiple account handling isnt so great... it always opened my first mail's page, so I'm sticking with popper, thanks anyway! – NaGeL182 May 13 '13 at 18:39
Takkat, you're using Ubuntu 13.04, right? I see you don't have those status icons (Available, Away, Busy...) in the Messaging Menu? How did you get rid of them? Thanks. :) – brunces Feb 03 '14 at 12:20
@user74660: sorry to say - I made the screenshots from a VM which got deleted later. No chance to find out what I did there. Related: http://askubuntu.com/questions/185021/how-to-remove-or-hide-chat-status-icons-from-messaging-menu – Takkat Feb 04 '14 at 12:00
No problem, Takkat. I appreciate your attention, anyway. Thanks. :) – brunces Feb 04 '14 at 17:08
@NaGeL182 for Unity Mail to open corresponding account page you may use this answer http://askubuntu.com/a/227047/284664, link format for different gmail accounts is following: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox (change number after 'u' for different accounts) – janot Mar 03 '15 at 15:03
