User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.0.2) Gecko/20021216
Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.4a

In Mozilla 1.0.2, when there is a new mail, the number of unread email sitting
at the inbox will automatically indicate besides the inbox in BOLD.

but

From Mozilla 1.3 onwards, even when there's several new mails @ the various
accounts, an incoming mail will be prompt at the system bar but when you look at
the main screen, there is no indication. Only when you shift the cursor into the
inbox then the number of unread mail will be indicated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.set up muliple mail accounts and send mail
2.send mail from one account to another

Actual Results:  
After incoming mail notification at system tray, inbox will no indicate new mail
arrived.

Move cursor to inbox, only then inbox will indicate the number of new mail arrived

Expected Results:  
Indicate the number of new mail in inbox WITHOUT the need to move cursor to
inbox as in earlier Mozilla version.
