In the design discussions, there was supposed to be a difference between the menu entries when the application is running, and when it is not running. So, for example:

This isn't good enough. That requires I know the difference in the first place, I need to see it when it's not running, and then see it when it's running and be aware of why it's different.

I disagree. If the menu options clearly invite you to DTRT, then you shouldn't have to worry about things like "the process is running". You click on the menu, you start watching email, you get notifications, you jump to your relevant email folder.
