vfolders in evolution 2.2.1.1 don't ever update their unread count, until I click on the original imap folder, and then back on the vfolder. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Create an imap account, and a vfolder that displays all messages younger than 3 days, called recent: Work Inbox vFolders recent pre condition: - imap Inbox shows no new messages - vfolder shows no new messages Select the vfolder, wait for new mail. Actual Results: - new mail arrives, imap unread count goes up to (lets say) 3, but vfolder stays the same _no_matter_how_long_I_wait_: Work Inbox (3) vFolders recent Expected Results: - new mail arrives, imap unread count goes up to (lets say) 3, vfolder unread count follows: Work Inbox (3) vFolders recent (3) In reality, I have many folders (and sub folders) in my imap account, and 2 vfolders. To get the vfolder to update, I have to click in the folder containing the new message, and then back in the vfolder to see it. I'm happy that vfolder's shouldn't necessarily all update as soon as new mail arrives, but I've waited for hours (went and had lunch + a meeting or two) while there is new mail in my imap inbox, but the vfolder unread count stays at 0, until I click on the imap folder containing the mail.

Reopen if this persists with the newest stable (2.4.2), thanks.
Problem seems to be gone in evo 2.4.2.1, thanks.
