Comment 14 for bug 441942

I've just discovered this "bug" while exploring the possibility of switching from Thunderbird to Evolution. I have to say, the expected behaviour (i.e. the difference between viewed and unread messages) is totally unintuitive. I expect to be told how many unread mails I have. Just because I have Evolution open it doesn't mean I've noticed I've got new mail, and unless someone is watching me through my monitor, it has no way of knowing. o_0.

Back to Thunderbird with notifications that work every time for me.
