Ok I managed to work out the problems (i think) and it doesn't seem to be a problem of Mailbox Alert.However, there are a few features I'd REALLY like with this addon...

1) to be able to change the background of the alert, with either image or flat colour. The grey looks very boring, sorry!
2) to be able to have sender & subject of last message displayed.
3)if multiple messages, to go to inbox when clicked, and if single to open the message.
4) to not have a time-out for when the message alert disappears. An open to click a "dismiss button" or something like that.

Otherwise a great app for Thunderbird!

Problem solved!

"I've spent a whole day trying to get this to work with Thunderbird 5, to no success! It worked perfectly before. When I "test it" it works in the Mailbox Alert Settings, BUT when new mail arrives, nothing happens.I've hunted for a "contact info" to contact the dev to tell him about it and for solutions, but I can't find no contact info, even on his website."
