Details

Folders that are not subfolders of INBOX do not get highlighted automatically
when new mails arrive. You have to select another folder and then revisit the
folder so that it gets updated. This really sucks (sorry for that).
I believe that although the complains and proposed remedies are different, the
root cause of this bug and bug 162475 are the same.

This bug suggests that MailNews should indicate which folder has "new" mail.  (I
dissagree)

Bug 162475 suggests that no new mail notification should occur at all under such
circumstances.  (I agree)

It would be best to argue the merits of both remedies under a single bug.
