Thanks Mike, that may be the reason. No, I don't use gmail to access that account, but Thunderbird on the pi is accessing these mails. In theory this is no problem if it forwards them, but if it gets them and does not forward, they probably loose their "new status".
Hi Thierry,
A workaround...
In KMail set the first filter to mark all incoming messages as 'new.'
KMail > Settings > Configure Filters
- Filter Rules > 'New' (the icon way down on bottom left) > Filter Actions - - Move it to the top of list - - Mark As > New - - Advanced tab - - - Apply this filter to incoming messages: - - - - from all accounts - - - Uncheck everything else - - - - don't apply to sent messages - - - - don't apply to manual filtering - - - - don't stop processing here
add anything else you need...
Best, Michael
PS: If you have more than ~100+ messages per download batch (depends on hardware specs) you might get minor 'freezes' in KMail when the filters get run.
