Is it really that hard? 

Maybe I'm not thinking it through enough, but I suggest this simple
approach: 
	Check for unread messages in the SpamBayes "watched" folders. 
	Check the spam score on each of those unread messages.
	If any exist where the Spam score is below the certain ham
threshold, show the icon
	if not, everything new was spam, and you can remove the icon.

This might take a second or two two but it can happen right after every
SpamBayes scoring run gets triggered. So we'll see the new mail icon for
at most a few seconds.
