New mail counter

[Ximi1970]

Will this be available for Tb <=100 ?

[Ximi1970]

Was already available for TB <= 90. But I do not know if it ever worked because I never used it or checked it. It was part of the old FireTray addon logic. I have now implemented a new 'new' count using the newer API calls and is enabled for versions TB 91 and up.
Do not know if it is any good :-). I tried to emulate the new indication and clearance of TB 102.0b7.

You can find the new implementation in this branch for now: feature-new-mail

[mjeveritt]

Looks like I misquoted previously, yes, >=91 was what I meant! :smiley:

Yes, this feature is the killer for me, so I can verify/test it works roughly as expected. Is there a build available, or is it reasonably easy to make from the repo source?* Thanks for your efforts!

* Figured from docs!

Some debug data - does this look right? -

Working fine with Inbox messages so far .. :D

[Ximi1970]

Will merge it with develop and create a new release compatible for TB 102.0

[mjeveritt]

FYI - there is an odd quirk where there is a 'left-over' 1 New message that refuses to go away, until you select the Inbox for each mail account AND then also another subfolder of Inbox, and returning to the Inbox for that account to clear it. No idea why that seems to cure it, but is a right pain! :grin:

I wonder if this may be related to this logic

[Ximi1970]

Tried to emulate the new mail behavior in the betas. Looks like they changed it again. Will try to emulate it again. The api for new mail is still hopeless and needs "manual" checking.

[Ximi1970]

Should be solved in the release.
