298702 - If several unread mails are downloaded, the number in the dock icon should decrement as each is read.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, enhancement)

Description

[jean_marie_pfaff1]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050619 Camino/0.9a1
Build Identifier: Mac OS X.4.1 Thunderbird version 1.0.2 (20050317)

When several unread messages are downloaded to the inbox, the dock icon displays
the number of unread mails in a small green bubble. 
As soon an one of the mails is opened, the green bubble disappears from the icon
instantly. It would be nice if it just decremented by one each time one of the
mails was read, only disappearing once all have been read (e.g. Mail does this).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download more than one mail to your inbox.
2. Click on any of them.
3. Watch as the green bubble disappears instantly.

highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
