I am using Gnus within Emacs as my mail client. I have my .gnus.el configured to check for mail periodically [1] but, right now, I have no way of knowing if I have received new mail short of switching to the Group buffer. I would like to receive some type of notification when I have new mail in a specific group or groups. I found gnus-notify.el [2] but I have been unsuccessful in getting it to work (admittedly probably due to my lack of understanding as to how to configure it properly - I am new to Emacs and Gnus). Can anyone provide the steps I need to take to get gnus-notify working correctly or provide another way to get some type of new mail indicator using Gnus?
