The number of unread messages is shown correctly though, and the folder name is highlighted in bold. This was working in TB3 b3. It is not limited to a particular RSS feed, all RSS feeds are affected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Subscribe to a RSS feed, e.g. http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/front_page/rss091.xml 2. check for updates until new items are received 3. verify if the folder icon shows the little yellow star to indicate new items Actual Results: no yellow star is shown on the RSS folder icon when new items are received for the RSS feed. Expected Results: The little yellow star should be shown on the RSS folder icon when new items are received for the RSS feed.

There is no yellow star above the RSS icon indeed. Just tested with 3.0b4. I don't know if it was there with b3 though. The folder name is bold still and the star is visible for mail folders if new mail arrived.
I confirm the little yellow star isn't shown on TB3 b3 either.
are you still seeing this in version 5 or 6?

(In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk) from comment #3) > are you still seeing this in version 5 or 6? I'm on TB 6.0.2 now, and the problem is resolved. I don't remember about TB 5 anymore, it may have worked there already.
Christian, thanks for the update
