Comment 3 for bug 373277

If you really intend this to be a "highly Ubuntu integrated" mail notifier, then it needs to support this. I would imagine it's rather trivial as well, since Network Manager sends the signals via dbus. gm-notify should not try to connect over and over again (currently based on what, a timer?), even if it is silent to the user. It should only do it once, when a network connection is actually available. Then, if it tries to connect and is unable, it *should* notify the user somehow just in case there was a typo or something.
