User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 I have two pop3 email accounts downloading to Mozilla mail. With prior builds, each account finished downloading mail, the inbox of each would be bold and th number of unread messages would be displayed as would be the green arrow. Under the current build (1.3a), this now only occurs with the primary account. In other words, the second account does not bold the 'inbox' nor display the number of messages downloaded when complete. The green arrow does, however, appear. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open Mozilla when connected with the internet. 2.password is already saved on both accounts 3.mail automatically downloads but when complete only bolds the inbox and displays the number of messages downloaded on the primary pop3 email account. Actual Results: See step number 3 Expected Results: both primary and secondary accounts should have the inbox bolded and display the number of messages downloaded. I am using the modern theme. This problem did not occur with prior Mozilla builds. BTW - awesome product!!!! Have a great holiday.

Bug 188827 looks like a dupe of this one too
I can confirm this new bug for the Linux version as well - it was not present in 1.2. Already missed a meeting because of it :-) Otherwise a great software!!!
Would like to confirm that I too have experienced this bug using standard build 1.3 (20030312) under XP SP1, although other comments here suggest the platform isnt that important. I too have 2 mail accounts and the second no longer shows bold text nor inbox content unless you explicitly select that account. Once this has been done, the contents are revealed (they are downloaded, just not shown). I am using modern theme and like the original bug reporter have the accounts automatically download on connection. Otherwise, Moz is becoming a REALLY nice product. Thanks guys.
Confirming on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312 But it's not consistent; I've only seen it a few times. (I don't get a lot of mail at my secondary POP box.) FWIW, I also have a third POP account, where I get almost no mail; I have not seen this symptom on that account, but I've only received one message there since noticing this symptom on the secondary.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Just for confirmation, I have exactly the same problem (two accounts, only first one shows bold & number of messages, other shows only green arrow for new messages) Using Mozilla 1.3 final, Modern theme on Linux

Using trunk build 20030408 on linux I don't see the problem. Profile has 2 pop accounts with "Leave messages on Server" checked and "Automatically download new messages" checked. Biff set for 1 minute I have Junk Mail Control=On and moving Junk to the Junk folder which is a new feature that might have blocked the 2nd biff but that is not the case for me. Can those of you who reported this try it with a build dated 4-8-2003 or later to see if you still have the problem. If so, can you tell me what your POP server settings are.

I am not yet ready to switch to using 1.4 as my default client, or even to let it share my local mailboxes with 1.3. Therefore, my 1.4 POP accounts are set up with "leave messages on server" as yours is -- UNLIKE my 1.3 setup, where I always remove the messages from the server. I also don't use 1.4 to access my busiest mail account, so the chances of seeing the symptom occur are very unlikely. Settings on 1.3 for all three accounts are: [ ] SSL [x] check at startup [x] check every 10 minutes [x] automatically download [ ] leave messages on server [ ] empty trash on exit. Junk controls are enabled for all three accounts, altho I get very little junk do to diligent mail providers.

Note a very similar report in Bug 195827 -- in that case, folders are not being highlighted when they get new messages via filtering, rather than (necessarily) being in a second account.
Another possibly related issue: Bug 145982

Seems like this is sufficiently related to bug 161999 that this should be either be duped to it or a depends or blocks created. To me, the gyrations necessary to discover how many messages unread in each folder constitutes major loss of function warranting a severity upgrade.
I would dupe this to that except: now that 161999 has Seth's attention, I am entirely unclear whether he intends to fix the original symptom or the symptom of this bug, which was *incorrectly* added in to that bug around Bug 161999 comment 18.
accepting trying to fix the whole enchilada, not just the cheese.

david set me straight for perf, call this once, when done downloading, not on each message.
