I'm not sure if this can be done with triggers or if it's got to be part of the client itself:

I'd like it to notify me if something happens in my MUSHclient window.

For instance, if I'm connected to a MUSH and typing an e-mail in another window with MUSHclient minimized and something happens, is there a way to get the program to blink and let me know?

I think mIRC has a similar function as part of its program, so I'm not sure if it's possible with triggers for this particular program? Anything that inputs to the window would respond by flashing?

This ought to do the trick,

World Configuration, Output, Check "New activity flashes taskbar"

The only other thing that I can suggest is set a MUST NOTICE trigger for something you cannot miss, and have it send to script. In Lua it is ActivateClient() or Activate()

The first will activate the main mushclient window, and the second will activate the world window itself.

Thanks. :)
