Unread message count for folders, shown on the main window?
« on: November 06, 2016, 01:48:39 am »
I am using the latest AquaMail Pro under Android 6.0.1.

I have a setup where I am not using the standard INBOX for a few of my IMAP accounts. For these accounts, all incoming email is routed to various folders, and the INBOX always remains empty.

On the main window itself, is there any way to show the unread counts for these folders for each account?

For example, assume I have an account called ACCT1. Furthermore, assume that this account contains a folder called "MyMail" into which all incoming email is routed.

If, for example, 3 new messages go into ACCT1.MyMail, I'd like to see something like 3* on the ACCT1 entry in the main window, exactly as if those new messages went into ACCT1.INBOX, instead.

I know I can open each account and look at the read/unread counts for each folder. However, I'd like to be able to see this folder unread count on the account line in the main window, without having to open up each account to check it. Is there any way to do this?

Thank you very much.

You will find this option in
-> Settings -> Account list -> Show per-folder "total" message counts -> choose the option "Always"
> screenshot #1

PS:
There is a "Search" functionality implemented in the app's settings: just tap on the magnifying glass at the top right corner and enter a search word.
> see screenshot #2

Thank you, but I have that option set, and it only seems to show the message counts next to each folder, when the account has been opened and the list of folders is shown.

I'd like the total read and unread counts from all the folders to be shown on the account tab, without having to open it and view the list of folders.

Am I missing something?


Never mind! I am mistaken. I didn't have that option set properly, after all. Once I fixed it, I am now indeed seeing the totals from the folders on the account tab, itself.

Thank you very much.

Great!
I'm glad to hear that it's working properly now.
Thanks for your reply.
