Description Bjarne Juul Pasgaard 2009-11-11 11:10:07 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I keep my draft mails in an IMAP folder. When I save the draft, it is counted in as a new mail. The name of the draft folder therefore appears in bold and the kmail tray icon is updated to show that 1 email remains to be read.

I'm ok with the draft folder name appearing in bold because that tells me that I have draft messages that I need to pick up upon. But I don't like that the kmail tray icon tells me that I have unread messages as this is clearly not the case; it's just an email that I'm the process of writing.

Does turning off the option Folder Properties - General tab - "Act on new/unread mail in this folder" achieve this?

Yes it does. Thanks!
