Details

The "biff icon" (the one with the green downward arrow), which marks a folder
with new messages in the folder pane, turns into a plain "open file folder" icon
if the folder has subfolders, and the subfolder tree is expanded.  It should
still have an icon with a green arrow when the folders are expanded.

To reproduce:
1. Open an IMAP accoutn on a cyrus server (where all the folders are subfolders
of Inbox).
2. Select Inbox
3. get new messages
4. Expand folder list

Actual result: Folder icon turns from "biff icon" to plain "open folder" icon.
Expected result: even when folder list expanded you should have visual
confirmation that new messages are waiting to be looked at.

Conversely, if an account has all folders hidden (just the account icon and
account name are visible), the account icon should get a green arrow if there
are new messages in the account's Inbox.

To reproduce:
1. Get new messages on your favorite Inbox, see biff icon on folder
2. Collapse folder list for that account

Actual result: plain account icon with twistie
Expected result: visual indication that account has new messages

Jennifer or Scott, do we need more icons for this, or do we have them and they 
just aren't hooked up?

Looks related to several other bugs on putterman's list, but I don't see any 
glaring dups.

Inbox with new messages icon is part of bug 25961:
http://gooey/client/5.0/specs/visuals/icons/icon_mail/beta1/mailsmall/inboxnew.g
if

Folder icons with green diamond do not exist yet.  I will talk to Shuang.

So we need one icon for the closed folder with new mail AND one icon with the 
open folder with new mail.

I've been ignoring all of these icon bugs to work on other things.  But a bunch 
of these are getting filed all of a sudden.  Is this just because someone's 
noticing them or is this something we need for beta?
My mistake, there is no Account-new mail icon yet either.  Will let Shuang know.

Is this for B1 or later?
Post B1 is fine
Reassign to Shuang as a reminder:

So we need:
   icon for account with new mail (green diamond)
   icon for the closed folder with new mail (green diamond)
   icon with the open folder with new mail (green diamond)

reassigning to gayatrib.  This sounds like a dup of a bunch of other bugs that
you currently have.

I think this can be marked fixed, the icons appear to be in the product.
