I've noticed that the number of e-mails shown in the sliding panels is not the number of unread e-mail in your inbox. Well, it is, until you open the mail client, then it resets to zero, regardless of whether you read any messages.
So my Outlook currently has 4 unread messages. I click on the Messages panel, click on Outlook and my inbox opens, and correctly I have 4 unread messages. I do not open any of them, so they are still unread.
Going back to the home screen, the sliding panel now says zero.
i.e. this is really showing the number of unread messages since you last opened the mailbox, not the total number of unread messages.
is this just my build? I'm running one of the Ricky/Kavana builds, number 4 I think.

Maybe it's just me...but it doesn't really bother me that I can't see the number of unread messages on my sliding panel. I choose to focus my anal tendencies (pardon the disgusting pun, lol) towards things like fonts and 3G! By the way, where's the 3 daggum G T-Mo?!
I actually like this feature - because I'll always have unread messages in my desktop outlook, without this feature it would always show something like "34". But since I also have a few POP email accounts setup in my phone, I could never tell if I have any new emails in them because they would be mixed in with the grand "unread total".
But, because you can clear the count for the "outlook" inbox by simply opening up that inbox, then any number I subsequently see for email count will indicate that I have waiting email in one of my POP accounts - very cool to me.
BTW, does anyone know where these "new unread since last inbox opened" counts are stored in the registry?
There NOT at locations like this:
HKCU\System\State\Messages\TotalEmail\Unread\Count
Because those are the "unread" count, not the "new since last access" count that the sliding panel notification uses.
I am currently running MCR3.1, and today I seem to have some problems with my gmail syncing.
When I receive an email to my gmail account, it shows up on my Desire however, when I delete (or read) it on my Desire, it still shows up in the inbox count on the top of the screen, and the changes don't seem to being reflected in my Gmail account.
The items are still shown as unread, even though I have deleted the item on my Desire.
I have attached a screenshot to show the inbox count, even though all emails are read.
Any ideas?

It happen to me some hours ago, althoug not on Gmail but on my own server, through IMAP. I read the email, and it still said in the notification bar that I have unread email.
What I did is I killed the email app. Then the notification went away. Then I started the mail app again and no problem at all. Dont know why it happen.
No issues here with Gmail app and MCRr3
I have a shortcut to each of my mailboxes on one of my homescreens. When I created them, they showed the number of unread emails as a small number on the mailbox icon. The number never changes and does not get updated when new emails come in or are deleted. Is there a way to show the current number of unread emails on the icon?
TIA
Hi, I used K-9 and now am trying to find what has gone wrong with it.
I got 4 email accounts synced with it. Gmail and yahoo seems to be problematic.
I had two problems with it :
1. On the right side of each of the Account name, there is a grey box with number on it, usually indicating how many unread emails inside it. Problem is, two of my account (inbox.com and hotmail) is showing the right amount of unread email. When I empty it, they will show no numbers, when it have 3 unread, they will show 3. The other two account, yahoo and gmail is showing odd numbers! My gmail is right now showing 29, and it actually is totally empty (I just deleted everything). My yahoo is showing 1032, and it actually only have 3 unread emails inside it.
2. What is expunge ?
3. Under each of the account settings, I set "Sync messages from" to "the last month". While inbox.com and gmail is syncing emails only from last month, hotmail downloaded every single thing up to my 2008 emails. Where did I go wrong on this one?
please, any help would be appreciated.. thank you so much
anyone care to help?
Is there a way to get K9 to show the number of unread emails in the icon like the default mail does?
