1.5.1.15-y1 - Yahoo workaround #3 (less optimal, but works where #1 doesn't)

[Kostya Vasilyev]

This version should work for everyone, even where 1.5.1.13 didn't.

http://www.aqua-mail.com/download/AquaMail-market-1.5.1.15-y1.apk

Drawback:

The per-folder unread counter will not include old messages beyond the "messages to sync" (default setting is "25 newest messages per folder", account level setting).

That is, only actually kept up to date (synced) messages will contribute to each folder's unread counter.

Is this saying that only the last 25 messages will be included in the sync? Or that anything prior to install will not be seen? Sorry, but I'm confused...

AquaMail, K9 Mail, stock Android Email, Mail Droid, Kaiten, Gmail, and all other mobile mail apps --

-- only keep up to date (sync) a limited amount of recent messages per folder, not all (potentially thousands, or hundreds of thousands of messages).

And if you need to see older messages beyond that, just scroll down and the app will sync more messages into view.

No change there.

What is different in this version and only for Yahoo accounts:

If you have let's say 3 unread messages within those 25, and 10 older unread messages (older, beyond the "25 message window"), then the unread counter will say 3, not 13.

So you'll still see when you have new unread messages, but not that there may be older unread messages.

And BTW, this is how the unread counter works in stock Android Email and K9 Mail, so it's not "wrong", just different from how Aqua normally shows the number of all unread messages, both new and old.
