I have problems spotting the microscopic image which tags a
folder with *NEW* unread messages. Messages in folders keep their
status as "unread" until I deal with the contents - it's
essentially my to-do list. I use flag status for a different
function.

I am using SeaMonkey 2.40 on WinXP Pro SP3
My likely relevant settings are:
    View->Layout->Classic View
    View->Apply Theme->SeaMonkey Default Theme

My preferred solution would be to change the color of the folder
title to indicate presence of *NEW* unread messages.
A _possible_ alternative might be toggling font face/metric of
the folder title.

Comments?
TIA

Instead of re marking it as unread, you can right click on the
heading and select "tag".  This gives you a range of types of
tags with different colors.  I have never used it except to try
it out.  Try that out.


I already have 26 tags defined. Some based on subject. Some based on importance. Some messages have 3 or 4 tags applied. Under Views->Message->Custom Views I have 14 listed. I also display the total number of unread messages in each folder so it seems reasonable to wish change some *VISIBLE* attribute of the folder's name when there is a *NEW* message present. Rather than that all but infinitesimal microscopic arrow.

YMMV ;/

Perhaps the best way is to "move" the message into the well choosen folder name into the "Local Folders" groups.
