[Dovecot] Strange new mail count
I am having a slight issue with new message count... for some reason, dovecot reports I have some strange number of new messages, even though there are no new messages... If I click on a few of the folders, the new message count seams to correct itself... Any way to solve this?

Is Dovecot reporting a strange number or is it your email app? (MUA?) Thunderbird has issues reporting on new mail in the popup notifier, however it's never reported it wrong next to the folders themselves (for me). This is a known bug in TB.
In a recent message from Charles Marcus, this plugin:
Mailbox Alert Extension https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/2610/
was mentioned as a possible workaround/solution for Thunderbird.
Hope that helped, Leeman
I am using SquirrelMail. I was using Courier-IMAP, and there were no problems...

Yes, it seems like it fixed it for me too. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
