Apple Mail

Hello,

The list of mailboxes in the Apple Mail window on the left shows the number of unread messages per mailbox. As many of my mailboxes has unread messages at all times due to my selective reading, I wonder if the following type of message counter might be possible in some form.

I check my mail manually (cmd-shift-n) and go to a meeting. When I return an hour later and check my mail manually once again, I don't know which of my thirty mailboxes have received new messages by way of respective filters. I had hoped this could be AppleScripted.

The rules in Apple Mail support AppleScript, and I can envision it would work by having each move message rule output a mailbox name to something like a TextEdit window. Still, there is likely a better way. Hope to hear from someone who has been there, done that.

Mikael
