I have received a number of suggestions of what the number is. But it
still is not clear.
Here is a "picture" of The Bat! at this very minute. These folders are
subfolders of my account, and have no subfolders. In the picture, X
represents an icon. Note the number is <6>, not (6).
NameUnread Total
-X MyAccountName 8
|-X Inbox0 <6>
|-X Outbox 0
|-X Sent Mail2
+-X Trash0
X Common Folders here with a total of 307 messages.
System information: I am using Pop3 at home with The Bat!, but the
account is really an Exchange account at work, which I read with
Microsoft Outlook.
The Message Dispatcher shows 15 messages, with all marked Read and one
also marked Delete. I execute the Dispatcher and the one message is
deleted. But the folder tree does not change, nor is there any change
in the six messages in Inbox. I Purge&Compress ... no change.
I am confused.
