First and foremost does anyone use it?

So far Im having good luck with it and have the interface tweaked almost exactly to what I had in Thunderbird, of course minus the issues and non existent fixes that Mozilla offers.

Heres where my questions come in. There is an option to enable a little mail icon display in the tray when you get new mail. Is it possible to allow a single click on that mail icon and have your default mailbox open up?

I already figured out my last question just playing around in the last few minutes. When I double click on the tray icon I wanted it to go to my email address. However it would go into Outlooks own Inbox folder in the favorites portion. All I had to do was delete Outlooks self created Inbox to make my own personal inbox the default.

This leads into my second question. In your favorites you can obviously "sticky" your favorite folders for that location and you can go through and see all of these locations. Sort of like a shortcut or bookmarks. Lets say I save the Inbox for xxxxxx@gmail.com into the favorites pane. When you physically look at the favorites pane with your favorite folders it will literally say Inbox for xxxxx@gmail.com or TRASH for xxxxx@gmail.com. Any way to alter those settings to just display Trash, Spam, Saved, Inbox, etc?

And now my last question. Any tips, tweaks, settings, or addons I should get for this thing? So far it seems to be the most complete package available.
