For what it's worth, to do exactly this I am using New Mail Indicator,
which is a GNOME shell extension, that also works with the Dash to Panel
(i.e., bottom of screen) GNOME shell extension. In each case, the
(persistent) indicator is a gray "open envelope" when there is no new mail,
which changes to a red/orange "closed envelope" when new mail arrives.

Hope that helps.
