Need for hide messages but don't mark them as read
« on: May 11, 2015, 02:13:06 pm »
I use actually Profimail, that has this feature.
Why I need this?
Because I hide messages that I want later answer on my desktop pc. But unfortunatly all hidden messages were implicitly marked es read.

Additional two feature for hiding would be nice(also working with Profimail)
- a sync of all hidden messages between all mobile clients
- temporary unhide. Needed for geting an hidden mail but I don't wont to unhide all for this.

Marking messages as read when hiding is necessary to keep the per-folder (and per-account) unread counters consistent.

This has come up before with another user, but I just don't see this changing.

Please contact me at kmansoft / gmail with your order number for a refund.

Hi Kostya,

I don't need a refund.
But please take a look to the Profimail-app (free with one account). It's workking great. Even the solution they do to sync the hidden  status could perhaps also solve your unread counter problem?
But Profimail was not realy developed in the any more last two yers. therfore I was looking for an alternative.

I've already looked into it -- it's possible by using a custom IMAP flag -- but it's very unreliable (server dependent).

May work just fine on one server (mail service), and fail on another. I don't want to open myself to another tech support issue.
