Re: Unread emails
This works a treat, many thanks. I left the account with list traffic out of the notifications, so it does as it says on the can.

Hopefully iOS 7 may include such a feature. Now, Avnish, here is a work-around which I found by doing a Google search for "displaying only unread emails in iOS". I did also set this up on my iPhone to test it and it works like a charm even if the unread messages are already in your Inbox. If they are all over then you can go to one of them by doble tapping on it in the Notification Center, read it and after you go back to the main messages list, you can touch the time and do a 3-finger swipe down right from there to bring up the Notification Center again to go to your next unread mail. As you read them, they disappear from the Notification Center list and you can repeat this until the Notification Center has no more Unread Mail notifications. I added a few extra comments and at one point I substituted the proper gesture for invoking the Notification Center for Voiceover users. Here is the article: View Unread Mail in iOS using Notifications Workaround by Christian Brady . March 20, 2013 While Apple added "VIP" to email in iOS 6, a feature that let's you assign certain people in your contacts to be VIPs and thus be automatically flagged, I still miss being able to quickly view only my Unread email. I often will have a number of unread messages, but with my most recent day or two of email being read. The result is having to scroll down and down and down to find the unread messages. Well I have a found a workaround! In the iOS preferences, go into Notifications and then select Mail. In that section, right at the top, you will see an option to Show X number of unread messages, set it to your desired value. On the iPad you can set that as high as 20 and in the iPhone the limit is 10. It is worth spending time in the Notification preferences because there are a number of other key features you might have missed, for example, the ability to set only certain email accounts to trigger notices or appear in the alerts or on the lock screen. This is handy, for example, if you want only your work email to show up on your lock screen. Additional Comment: Make sure that the email account or accounts you want to view in this way have "Notification Center" set to on. You do not have to select Alerts or Banners for this to work, if you like you can set the Alert Style to No Alerts. Finally, if you wish, you can go into Settings, Mail, Contacts and Calendars and set up to 5 lines of the email to show as Preview. The result is that touching an item in the status bar and a quick 3-finger swipe down will bring down your most recent unread messages with up to 5 lines of the email visible. Tap on the email and go directly to it without having to scroll endlessly in Mail. Additional Comment: It doesn't seem to matter if I set Preview to "None", 1, 2, 3 4 or 5 lines, if I bring up the Notification Center and swipe to one of the unread mail messages, Voiceover promptly starts reading the entire message if I let it. Lastly, once you properly set up the Notification Center, if you bring it up and it doesn't show any unread messages, but you know for sure you have some, just close the Mail app and by that I mean bring up the app switcher and remove it from there. Now if you bring up the Notification Center again your unread mail should be there. Regards, Sieghard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.

Re: Unread emails
Thunderbird allows you to do this as well, plus there's a hot key that takes you to the next unread message. I don't see a way to do this with the native client on the iPhone though. It just grabs your most recent messages, whether they're read or unread. On 05/19/2013 01:56 PM, Thom wrote: I know that in outlook, you can go to view and choose unread messages.
