It's modest-home-applet you'll need to reinstall for that.
I'm not sure about the email notifications - they probably only happen when modest is not in the foreground.

Modest is the name of the email program used on the N900, so modest-home-applet is the home screen applet for modest.Code:root apt-get install modest-home-applet

Took down the latest Community SSU update and lost my mail again so had to rerun the above. Also had to use MfeFolders as it lost all my settings (major pain as I have hundreds of folders and Mfe is very unstable and keeps crashing). Did this happen to anyone else?

Reflashing to PR1.3 and installing the CSSU from there should eliminate the problem (it did for me), otherwise I think you're likely to end up hitting the same issue with every CSSU update (though having installed the modest-home-applet package explicitly is supposed to stop it being auto-removed).

I know this thread is already a bit dusty but since the problem of the OP seems to be an issue again I would like some advice.
As I installed CSSU for the first time last night (2maemo15) I noticed the same problem with the widget being gone.
I don't know how to find out what else has been uninstalled when installing the CSSU. Is there a copy of the install messages anywhere on the phone? I would like to find out what might have mentioned while updating to CSSU. HAM Log seems to be empty as of now.
I did a "dpkg -l|grep ^rc >" to a file which lead to a rather short list of rc-marked components:
Which of these happen to be actually needed an not remnants of my own doing? I would guess libtheora0, libvorbisenc2 and tracker-extractor-vorbis might be rc due to installing Ogg Support 1.1.1? What about the others?
The desktop widget is not in the list as I already "apt-get --reinstall" it.

I am on the latest Community SSU release and am loving all the tweaking options (blurless etc). Thanks to all who are working on this. Much appreciated.
However, I have run into a problem. My e-mail widget is gone. Not sure what happened or in which update it happened but it is not on any of my views nor is it available when I try and add it through the Desktop Menu/Add Widget command. Any ideas? Was thinking of formatting the phone using my PC but am worried about losing stiff.
Also, how do you get notifications of new e-mails. When i run my mail synchronization it picks up my new mails but I get no 'beep' or pop up. Does this only happen if I have it set to synchronise continually?
Thanks in advance.
