Growl for Mac sends you notifications about the tasks running in the background, shows you previews of incoming emails in real time, and can even tell you when one of your chat buddies comes online. The Mac App Store is a way for Growl to showcase its compliance with Lion’s new sandboxing security technology, and, of course, the vetting process for being in the store in the first place. Mac Apps, Mac App Store, iPad, iPhone and iPod touch app store listings, news, and price drops. Growl is the is ultimate notification system for the Mac.

Growl is not free software when you want to use this software you will need to purchase it through Mac App Store for USD$ 3.99 for the latest version of Growl. For Hardware Growl, you could also buy it from Mac App Store for USD$ 2.99. The Growl iTunes and Capster 3.0 are sold for USD$ 1.99. Is it Worth it to Install? Initially developed as a free System Preferences Pane, Growl has become a commercial project for some time now and is listed in the Mac App Store, although its code is Open Source.

I have Mail Version 5.2 (1257) and Growl 1.3.3 in Lion and this seems not to work

Growl Notification from Mail.app with Sender Photos

I am running the newest versions of both OS X and Growl, on a MacBook Pro that is a couple of weeks old, and I noticed that the script didn't work properly until I placed it into the '/Library/Scripts/Mail Scripts/' path. Otherwise (in /Library/Scripts path), it would only open my Address Book.app. I haven't tried to place the script anywhere else, so I don't know of any problems with doing that.

I'm also running Mail v5.2 and Growl V1.3 (built from source)
I have the script in /Library/Scripts/Mail Scripts/
Scripts also just opens my AddressBook.app
I was reading through the AppleScript and it looks for GrowlHelperApp ?

You may have to pull the script into the Applescript editor and run it once for the script to work in mail. Otherwise it won't set itself up in Growl (at least the latest growl for Lion), due to the position of the first growl tell in the script.
Once you run it from the Applescript editor you should find Mail as an enabled application in Growl and it should work fine wherever you put it as long as you set the script up with the mail rule. At least this is what happened in my case when I downloaded the script @11:30am or so.

Using Growl 1.3.3 from the Mac App Store and Mail 5.2 (1257) on Lion 10.7.3, it only worked when I change tell application 'GrowlHelperApp' to tell application 'Growl'

I have Mail Version 5.2 (1257) and Growl 1.3.3 in Lion. I used the downloaded script which used the application 'Growl' and not 'GrowlHelperApp', and I loaded the script into the Applescript editor and ran it. The Mail app also shows in the list of apps in Growl preferences. Given all this I'm still unable to get it to work. Any suggestions would be welcome!

Okay, for all those Lion + Growl 1.3.3+ users, I had a tinker with the script in conjunction with the sample Applescript provided by the Growl Team. Basically just replace 'tell application 'GrowlHelperApp' with 'tell application id 'com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp'.
Here's a replacement Mail2Growl.scpt:
