[Download RAW message or body]

The only workaround is the one you've discovered - to change folders.

There is another notification applet, using d-bus which can be used to
find out about new mails. Its been posted to the evolution-patches list
at least.

<PRE>
I use Evolution with an IMAP account. There is one small \
annoyance: whenever I download new messages from the \
IMAP server and read them, it seems Evolution does not \
let the server know that the e-mails have been downloaded and read. The new mail applet in the GNOME panel \
keeps spinning happily telling me I have new \
messages.

If I switch to another folder and then return to my Inbox in \
Evolution, it does appear to update the status on the \
server. Is there a setting I can change or some \
workaround so the status is updated without changing folders? This is Evolution 2.2.2 on Debian unstable.
