It seems a few people are in agreement with me here. Its awkward at 
present to have the whole of Thunderbird open on start-up, which is yet 
another reason to implement this feature in the future.

This would be useful as well. In Windows, my mom is always forgetting 
how to check her emails. If this did it automatically, she would be 
drawn to the blue icon and would be able to check her emails without 
having to get me to open it for her. And it would give me a reason to 
switch her netbook over to Ubuntu.
