Description Bruce Bowler 2014-04-09 16:11:07 UTC
While I understand that some folks might find it useful, personally I find it annoying and unnecessary.  I can generally tell if there are items in the DRAFTS folder by looking at the entry for that folder in the "number of messages" column.  If it's non zero, there are items in the folder.  Having it highlighted when there are items in the folder (pretty much always for me) makes it harder to do a quick scan of the folder list to see where new messages are.

Please make the highlighting optional.

This is still not released, changing version to git.

Drafts now works like other folders
Comment 3 Bruce Bowler 2014-04-27 13:44:34 UTC
I disagree.  The only time other folders are highlighted is if there are unread messages in them.  With this change, the drafts folder is highlighted if there are *any* messages in it.  I fail to see how this makes it "work like other folders".

You are wrong, probably because your version of Claws is not new enough.
