I've had my RCS TR40 for several years and it works great.
It has an alert light for messages that I use to alert me when the
mail arrives. (a red light turns on)
I created a Reset Mailbox Indicator button on the MisterHouse front
page that resets the red light.
It connects over an RS232 cable so the Insteon solution may be easier
to deal with unless you want to run the extra cable.
Check out my wiki entry for how I use mine.

The Media Center 2005 screen shots are outdated. I've created a new
Vista Media Center page but I haven't included those screen shots.
