Always one new mail notification

[xoned1]

I'm currently facing the bug, that regardsless of what i'm doing, there is always one new mail notification shown. It's happening only for one account but it never disappears.
I've checked is:unread but nothing is shown either.

• OS: Windows 10

• Mailspring: 1.6.3-134a0e55

• Provider: Googlemail.

• No connection/sync issues.

• Other client: No

Edit: I forgot to mention that i mean the notification on the left side beside the Inbox

While mine isn't always there, on Mac, I have perhaps a similar issue. On Mac, the menu bar icon says I have mail, so I go, read and process the mail, literally get to inbox zero, the notification goes dark, and then about 30-60 seconds later I look up and the menu bar icon is blue again. I go back and there is never any new mail. Once I view the client again, the notification goes dark again and stays dark until I actually get some mail. Not a huge problem--not as annoying as what xoned1 is talking about--but still frustrating, especially for the OCD'ers among us. :)

Can confirm the issue. Every time i change the focus to another application, the mail icon turns blue after some time. But there is no new mail in the inbox.

I have the same issue on Ubuntu 18.04. It happens in Gmail conversations where, for unknown reasons, mailspring does not pick-up that all the emails in the conversation are read and keep the conversation in the unread folder.

While this is not a solution, I figured out if you go to Preferences->Accounts->Rebuild Cache, it removes the notification. Just in case someone is getting really annoyed and stumbles upon this.

Same problem here with GMail : Kubuntu 19.10 / Mailspring 1.7.2-4522b259
