Jean-Yves is completely correct regarding trademarks. Noone stops you
from using the sources under GPL3, but only Jean-Yves can let you use
the name "Mail Notification" (assuming it's a valid trademark of
course).

Though there is of course, a potential iceweasel situation here - i.e.
Ubuntu could choose to distribute the patched sources under a new name
because of such issues.

Jean-Yves - am I right in assuming that your resistance applies mostly
to this patch, and not to all patches in general? 

Or better - what IS the exact trademark license, really? Can ubuntu ship
MN with security fixes or not, for example? Where is the limit?
