That isn't necessary. :-)

It is a good thing for a mail client to allow checking for messages when
it has no windows open. But it's not a critical Natty-stopping flaw if
it doesn't.

If you want it implemented in your favorite mail client, draw up a
sketch of a few different ways it could be toggled on/off within that
client, choose the best one, implement it (or promote it to attract
someone else to implement it), and send the code upstream. You have the
power.
