[Daniel Gnoutcheff <893992@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I seem to be experiencing the same problem with a POP account that's
setup to use global folders (Edit -> Account settings -> [POP account
name] -> Server Settings -> Advanced).  Any incoming mail triggers a
notification bubble but fails to change the color of the messaging menu
icon.

However, if I use a separate inbox for the account, then new messages do
trigger the desired color change.

Title:
  Messaging Indicator does not go blue on new mail in Thunderbird IMAP
  account

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My Thunderbird is configured to connect via LAN to my college IMAP server. When a new mail arrives, there is only a system notification saying a new mail has arrived. The Messaging Indicator envelope does not turn blue. Neither does the Thunderbird icon in the Unity Launcher show unread mail count. So if I miss the notification because I was looking away, I do not have a way of knowing that a mail has arrived.
  I have tried purging the whole package including the ~/.thunderbird folder, but the problem refuses to go. Messaging menu works fine because Empathy and gm-notify both use it without any trouble.
