Ok, that makes sense. Is there a quick explanation as to what Evolution is using to check for new messages in folders?
I could always look into patching the mailcheck program that comes with GKrellM to support that method of checking mail if I need to :). Or is there a plan in the works to set the status flag just for backward compatibility? Either way I'd like to know how Evolution is doing it.. so I can stop these freaky counts on my mailcheck app :) Thanks! On Fri, 2001-10-05 at 15:27, NotZed wrote: > > > Btw..
