130952 - IMAP folders don't show new entries (bold)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 18266

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

Build 2002031104

Something that is very annoying, and actually a productivity bug is that with
IMAP folders you don't see which folder has new information, only the INBOX has
this info. There are many backend filters, such as sieve, that moves information
to separate IMAP folders. Same with shared folders. Outlook has this feature. In
other words, when updating the folders, go through each and every one to see if
they have new entries. If it's a performance issue, make it a selectable option.
Otherwise many might switch back to Outlook Express or something similar that
have this feature.

While you are at it, fix the problem Mozilla mail and Outlook has, i.e. when
moving entries from one folder to another, they are actually shown as bold
entries, even if the email was already read. They should not be marked as unread
if they are alread read.
