Dear Patrick Ulbrich!
I have just updated my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS.
In 12.04 I used Popper as e-mail checker. It is fully not supported on 16.04 LTS because of new notification API.
Your mailnag checker was recommended as a good (and working) alternative.
So I installed mailnag and mailnag-messagingmenu-plugin from your PPA on 16.04. They look great, thank you!
I configured two e-mail accounts.
But mailnag-messagingmenu-plugin does not show account in the indicator-messages list. It is known issue with mailnag.
I remember popper configuration window (see this article).
It has many customizations for indicator.
I added account_name to the indicator-messages. For now it shows e-mail in the form:
"%s: %s - %s" % (m.account_name, sender, m.subject).
Patch is below:

But I have problem with messages list width. It is very narrow.
How I can make it wider? Popper's list was wider.
Which documentation do you recommend?
With best regards,
Norbert.
