Description Eric Kjeldergaard 2006-01-01 23:35:47 UTC

Version:           1.9.1 (using KDE 3.5.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.4 [FreeBSD] 20050518
OS:                FreeBSD (i386) release 7.0-CURRENT

This could be a duplicate, but I didn't see it.  That noted:

I have my mail folder set up like so:  pop3 account delivers to Inbox, Inbox should report new messages if they are in there.  A bunch of filters are in place to take messages that are being delivered to Inbox and instead toss them in <mailing-list-name> directory.  I keep just the system tray visible and if it looks like I have mail, open up the kmail window.  However, with this system, the count is reflecting the sum of new messages added to all of the <mailing-list-name> directory and the Inbox even though "Act on new/unread mail in this folder" is unchecked on all but Inbox itself.  Further, as soon as I open kmail's main window (via clicking on the system tray icon) the count is corrected.

Same issue on kubuntu feisty / kontact 1.2.4 / kmail 1.9.6
I always see that behavior since I begin to use Kontact (2 or 3 yrs)
Kmail is setup with 4 imap account.
