Permissions required:
- Access your data on all websites: this is required because your Zimbra Webmail server URL is configured in the options page and cannot be know beforehand, but that is the only external location the extension tries to access.
- Access your tabs and browsing activity: the extension will open a new tab for your inbox only if there isn't one already open.
- Storage: for persistent settings.
- Notifications: this one should be straightforward :)
