91085 - [RFE] Sidebar panel for new mail messages

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, enhancement)

Description

[Lasse Marøen]

If you use several different mail accounts and folders you have to change
folders a lot when you want to check your new mail. It would be nice to have all
new messages in one place, regardless of what account or folder they belong to. 

This sidebar tab should list subject and sender of all unread messages. Could be
visible in browser too, so you could read subjects of new mails before leaving
the browser.

bug 87520 ?

I looked at bug 87520 before posting this, and though they're related, they are
not the same. 

The main purpose of bug 87520 (if I understood it correctly) is to provide
access to mail folders from navigator. The purpose of this bug is to provide
access to new mail messages from within mailnews without having to navigate
through different folders. 

I would like a sidebar that lists only new messages, so that when I want to
check my new mail I get a neat list of all my new mail without selecting my
inbox for my home mail, my bugzilla folder, my work account inbox, etc. As a
bonus you could have access to this from navigator as well:) When I have no new
mail, this should be empty.

The sidebar in mailnews is removed a long time ago
