Details

I have several pop filters for a pop account. On some folders, the counts don't
update correctly on the target folder when messages are filtered into them. The
new flag is set, but the unread count doesn't increment.
Happens for me too.. sometimes!  I couldn't reproduce it right now, but
sometimes it happens, sometimes not.

I guess it is several places in the source where this count gets updated, thus
it works occasionally.
Laurel might have a DUP of this.

I am not sure yet, but it might be that this occurs when nothing is selected in
the folderpane (like, on startup).
Yeah, this is reproducable for me when I have new mail, and mailnews is opening
at startup of the browser.

OK, I tracked down a bit what's happening here. In the case that it doesn't
work, the nsIMsgFolder has *not* registered itself as a listener on the db when
headers get added to the filter move target folder, so the db doesn't send out
notifications. If you've opened the folder during the session, the notifications
should work. I'll try to fix this.
