This Devuan/Ascii box shows unread mail numbers in KMail Favorites but only when the numbers are non-zero. All accounts here are IMAP. $ kmail -v Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.0.5 KMail: 1.9.10 (enterprise35 0.20100827.1168748) (I don't know why previous posters have a space between enterprise and 35 while we do not.) --Mike
