Tb already has button for "Refresh folder from scratch". It's called "Repair Folder" button :-) > Better yet, add a Refresh button in the same row as Unread, Starred, Contact, Tags, and Attachment? You are right. There is no way to intentionally close mail folder in Tb.There is no way to force de-select of Mbox at a connection. There is no way to force "uid fetch 1:* Flags" to recover from this bug by simple/easy operation. Purpose of any workaround stated in this bug is : force "uid fetch 1:* Flags" for Inbox. Go Offline/Go Online : Force logoff -=> Tb has to do login, SELECT Inbox, uid fetch 1:* Flags max cached connections=1 : FolderX steels connection from Inbox => When Inbox is accessed, Tb has to do SELECT Inbox, uid fetch 1:* Flags If "close/reopen folder" like button/menu will be implemented, it's helpful for this bug. But there is no need of such button in usual use. Button only for working around problem(in this case, in both Tb and Gmail) is not usually implemented. About IDLE setting : Server Settings/Advanced About CONDSTORE : read Bug 912216, please. About "adequate new mail check interval" : If "a few new mails per an hour", I believe "Check new messages Every 1 minute" is usually not mandatory. If "10000 new mails per an hour", I believe "Check new messages Every 1 minute" is not needed(rather annoying), because you can know about many many new mails upon each mail viewing. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/603402 Title: Thunderbird incorrectly shows some Gmail archived messages as unread via IMAP Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Steps to reproduce: 1) Wait for a few messages to arrive in Inbox, thus being marked as unread. 2) Mark all of them as read, then archive them. 3) Click on All Mail folder. Actual Results: Only one of recently archived messages is marked as read (usually the newest one), the rest must be marked as read again. Expected Results: All of recently marked as read in Inbox and archived mails should be marked as read in All Mail folder, too.
