I think a related problem in checkgmail is that in Preferences --> System Tray all buttons can be checked or unchecked, it doesn't make any difference. I thought the idea of the system tray checkboxes (new, no new, error) was that you might want the system tray to NOT show up in certain cases (e.g. when there is no new mail). But this is not possible with this dialog.
