[Bug 893992] Re: Messaging Indicator does not go blue on new mail in Thunderbird IMAP account

 

I am experiencing this bug too, but I use pop3 for all my accounts
instead of imap, and all of my accounts use the "inbox for this server's
account". The envelope indicator icon does not change, nor does the
unity icon show an unread count. Ubuntu 11.10, Thunderbird 8.

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.
