seen on recent Mac Thunderbird trunk builds steps to reproduce: -ensure all messages are Read in the account you will use for testing. -create a saved search on the inbox for subject contains "popeye" (create it as a subfolder to the account inbox) -compose and send a message to that account with "popeye" in the subject -Put focus in the Folders pane on the accout (not the inbox or saved search for popeye) -Click Get Mail tested results: As long as the test message is the only one downloaded, the follow shold be seen: The Inbox will indicate one new unread message : Inbox (1) (this is as expected) The saved search folder will indicate two new unread messages : Inbox-popeye (2) expected results: The test saved search folder should indicate one new unread messages : Inbox-popeye (1) note 1: clicking on the test saved search folder will correct the count from (2) to (1). note 2: Click on the test save search folder, but don't read any popeye messages, then receive a new message that meets the search criteria and the count for the search folder will show (3) instead of (2) note 3: I can not reproduce this on Windows.

Tracy, do you still see this problem?

I haven't seen this on 2.0.0.x branch. Which is all I've used of late. I'll have to check trunk later.

This looks like bug 278945 which was marked a duplicate of bug 272060

Indeed, duping...

um, no. I filed this one months after that one was closed. And happen to see it yesterday with T-bird version 2.0.0.12 (20080213)

Here is a screenshot of the bug in action. This is Thunderbird version 3b4 on Mac OSX 10.5.8. The blurs were added.

I believe my screenshot is of the same issue, or at least caused by the same issue, but I didn't follow the steps to reproduce as listed. For the wrong number of new messages to be shown in the dock icon, the steps to reproduce are as follows: 1) Get a new message.

If you could confirm this on a nightly build, I'd be interested. I've just done some fixes that should address this.

I can't reproduce with the nightly build from today (Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5pre) Gecko/20091029 Shredder/3.0pre)

Marking as fixed by bug 509163. If this starts again, we can reopen or get a new bug going. Thanks for testing.
