[Bug 856642] Re: launcher icon shows wrong number of new messages
Right now I have 227 unread/unscanned messages in SPAM folders
128 in Deleted Items
3 in Drafts
68 in a folder I filter a mailing list to.
10 in my Inbox
Displaying the sum of those counts in my launcher icon is not useful.
Being told there is 10 in my Inbox would be useful.

Title:
launcher icon shows wrong number of new messages
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The thunderbird launcher icon shows a seemingly-arbitrary number of
unread messages. My inbox currently has 7 unread messages, and I have
at least 500 unread messages in other folders according to the
thunderbird UI. However the launcher icon currently shows there are 42
unread messages. The number in the launcher icon does fluctuate, and
it usually decrements when I read a message. It's never been correct
about the number of unread messages, though.
The Mail indicator in the panel also has a list of folders with unread
messages, and a count of the number of unread messages in each of
those folders. The unread counts in the indicator's listing are also
inaccurate, and the sum of the unread messages in the indicator does
not match the number of unread messages in the launcher icon.
Thunderbird is configured for a pair of IMAP accounts. Each account
has a number of folders and subfolders.
