The advantage of a dedicated notification agent is, that it can show notifications even when KMail is not running, you can configure to be notified only for certain folders (for instance for inbox, but not for mailing list folder) and the notifications are much nicer - when there's only one new email, the notification will show sender, subject and start of the text (and sender photo when available); when there are multiple new emails, the notifications is like "3 new emails in inbox, 1 new email in Fedora-KDE".
Way cool, I like it :)
its a shame the [1]Lion Mail Plasma Applet was never absorbed into KDE tho, I've always used it and it accomplishes the same thing.
