email count by Knighted on 11-12-2005 at 07:13 PM

hi,

my webmail accounts support pop, and so i can check them with msgplus, but it detects the all of the msgs on the server rather than the amount of unread mail.  it would work properly if i downloaded all the read messages to outlook or something (thus removing them from the http account), but i don't really want to do that.  anyone know a way around this so that msgplus would report the unread messages rather than the total amount?

thanks

There is no workaround for this problem. Some servers return the number of total mail instead of the number of unread mail and Plus! cannot work around this.
