Hello all,
At the moment I am getting fairly regular automated announcements which are of minor interest.
I've managed to make a rule to move these messages to a folder, and to mark these messages as read.
However, the "new mail envelope" icon in the system tray does not go away automatically if all the messages fetched are caught by this filter - resulting in no unread messages.
The current messy workaround is to mark a message as unread, and then mark it read again :-(
Does anyone know a better way to make the system tray icon more accurately reflect the existence of unread messages in outlook?
Or is the system tray icon actually telling me something else?
Basically, I would like the system tray icon to only show up if there are unread messages in the inbox, and to disregard the automatically marked as read messages in a folder.
I'm using outlook express 6 running on Windows XP.
Thanks
