Mail.app - smart folder/flagged message count?
Russell | Jan 4 2007
I started looking for this and so far no dice... Is there a way to have a count of the messages in a Smart Folder? It would be nice if beside the Smart Folder it would display the number of messages in it. Any ways to do this? 7 Comments

I found this website which explains how to give any folder a message count next to it (of all items - read or unread) http://pianomansam.wordpress.com/. The general idea is that you change the mailbox type in the plist file so that, in this instance, the smart folder thinks it is something else. I have changed my smart folders to type 4, so that they think they are draft mailboxes. One effect is that the mailbox icon changes, but pianomansam explains how to fix this as well. I have also found that sometimes the counts do not update unless I click on the mailbox, but I am looking at how to fix that. HTH. » POSTED IN:
