Hi TBUDL,

I have the following idea for a new feature for TB! which would be
very useful to me... and I'd appreciate your feedback to see if it
would be worth adding it to the wishlist...

Now we have colour-group highlighting of messages I find it quite
handy to be able to mark messages which I need to take some action
upon in a different colour - I created a colour group called 'Pending'
for just this purpose.

Now, I also use TB!'s 3 pane view with a full height folder tree and I
have incoming mail sort automatically so that messages end up in
various folders depending upon their contents/subject/sender/whatever.

Gladly, TB! highlights the folder name containing unread messages in
an emboldened font thus making it a simple process to locate the new
mail (you know - for occasions when the mail ticker/virtual folder
just won't do!) which is exactly the way things should be.

Now, my idea is that it would be very useful if folders containing
messages in the Pending group could have their name highlighted in the
folder tree as well to provide me with a quick visual reminder of
where I have outstanding messages upon which I must act.  This could
perhaps be an option applied to the colour group when created to say
'highlight foldername' or similar.

What do you think?  Would this be of value to anyone?  I'd only want
to add this to the wishlist if there was a body of people who liked
the idea - otherwise I'd feel I was just being selfish!

Cheers,

Mark
