Package: wmbiff
Version: 0.4.28-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
In the latest version when a 'shell' command returns a count of (old)
messages then 00 is displayed instead.
If "new N" is returned then the new count is still displayed as it
should.

Reading through the git logs a bit more, I see that my idea was already
implemented by "classic mode" [1]. Running `wmbiff -o` will restore the
original behavior.
