How to change colour of mailbox containing new mail

I have Thunderbird sort my incoming mail into various mailboxes based on various criteria.
Until recently, when new mail arrived in any box, the title of that box (in the list, left hand pane) turned red - thus making it easy for me to identify which boxes needed my attention. For some reason this has stopped. The incremental number showing the number of unread messages still changes, but the title colour remains black.
Anyone know how to change the behaviour to highlight mailboxes containing new mail please?
Thanks..

My point is that until recently the behaviour was automatic - it changed the colour of box names as amatter of course. This has now changed, wth all box names being in black whether or not there is new mail in the box.
I receive a lot of mail and being able to quickly distinguish which box had received new mail would make life easier..
I suspect there is a setting within Thunderbird to enable this but I'm damned if I can find it..

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi,
    if you are talking about the NewsBrowser of Knowledge Management (Content Management -> Explorer -> News), you should see a button "Edit" on the right side of the news.
    Press this button and fill in a new URL in the input field "Image URL". After saving the new settings, the new image should be displayed.

  • I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
    You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
    The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
    For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.

  • Rule to open mailbox containing unread mail?

    I had been using Eudora, but have recently switched to Mail. When I used Eudora, it would open a destination mailbox when new mail was filtered to it. Is there a way that I can do this with Mail, either using rules or apple script?  Othewise it's very tedious to have to manually open every mailbox marked with unread mail, and I will end up missing critical messages.  There's got to be a better way.
    I found Andreas Amaan's Mail Scripts (http://www.andreasamann.com/MacOSX/Mail_Scripts) - but the Open Mailbox script which was written to do exactly what I need - doesn't seem to work with Mountain Lion.
    Can anyone provide an updated script?

    I think there is already a default "Unread" Smart Mailbox.
    If there isn't, here's what it would look like:

  • Is there any way to change the sound of the New Mail alert.

    My partner and I both an have iPhone 4. Is there any way we can change the sound of the New Mail alert. It is so confusing because we never know which phone just got a new mail.

    Unfortunately due to the restrictions of iOS there is no way to change the New Mail alert sound. One way around this is to have one of you to set the phone to silent and the other not. Then when the person on silent gets a new email the phone will vibrate and the other person will get the audio alert.

  • How to change colour settings on Satellite Pro P300

    I just got my new laptop and can't for the life of me find how to change the colour settings in the monitor.
    On my old desktop there was a button on the monitor.
    Being a first time laptop user im going nuts trying to find how to change my monitor settings...
    If anyone can help id be so grateful

    Please dont mix the notebooks internal monitor with the external desktop PC monitor.
    You will not find any control unit like on the external monitor which would help you to change the color.
    I dont know what graphic chip your notebook uses but my notebook supports Intel graphic card and the preinstalled Intel graphic media accelerator (in control panel) provides some settings for color correction;
    The settings are; color, gamma, brightness and contrast
    There you can set the values between 0 and 100

  • How to change the element of container in the task

    Hello,all.
      I am new for workflow,today i find a new problem:when i finish a activity in the template,the element of container in the task can not be changed. Why? And how to change?
      Thanx,

    Hi Nemo,
    What I understood from your query is as follows -
    You have worked with Task activity in a workflow template. Now you want to change the element in Task Container, which you are not allowed to do so.
    If above is your query, kindly find following solution -
    1. You must have used some BOR object in your task activity.
    1. If you have used automatic binding between the method of BOR and workflow task then automatically the container elements are created. Now if you want to change these container elements then recommended is to change them first in method of BOR and again link the method. Let these elements generate automatically as part of binding.
    2. If you don't have any binding between your BOR method and Task container then, you don't have any elements created automatically. So you can directly create new elements inside task.
    Hope this helps you.
    PS If the answer solved your query, plz close the thread by marking it solved and rewarding each reply.

    Forgive me for not looking into your Maya-specific links, but one can automate Photoshop using JavaScript indeed (on Windows also VB, on Mac also AppleScript).
    Not everything can be automated naturally, but a lot – and it can really speed up many tasks; and with the »small« repetitive ones like saving copies off of files etc. combining Scripts with Configurator Panels can be especially convenient.

  • How to change colour of the Cell in a table

    Hi,
    Could you please let me know how to change the coluor of the cell at table.
    here i m having a column called "STATUS". i m getting data from backend and filling this column with two values(success/failed).
    when i get success, the cell should be in green color, when it is failed cell color should be red.
    i followd below:
    created a context attribute "color" of type
    com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.TableCellDesign
    i binded this with the column proerty "cellDesign".
    when i executed bapi i sohlud get different colors according to output.
    here is my execute function
    wdContext.currentZemp_Compare_InputElement().modelObject().execute();
                wdContext.currentUploadElement().setStatus(wdContext.currentMessageElement().getSuccess());
                if(wdContext.currentMessageElement().getSuccess().length()>6)

    Hi,
    For your scenario, you need to have two cellVariant as TableStandardCell (say successTSC & failTSC). Add tableCellEditors to these 2 TableStandardCell as you like. Mark there variantKey property as var1 & var2 respectively.
    Do change the cellDesign as you like the color for the TableStandardCell.
    Bind an attribute selectedVariant to your column selectedCellVariant property.
    Now in wdDoModify you can write:
    for(int i=0;i<wdContext.nodeCountries().size();i++){
    if(wdContext.nodeCountries().getCountriesElementAt(i).getStatus().equals("SUCC")){
    // Here node countries is the datasource of your table.
    wdContext.nodeCountries().getCountriesElementAt(i).setVariantKey("var1");
    } else if(wdContext.nodeCountries().getCountriesElementAt(i).getStatus().equals("FAIL")){
    wdContext.nodeCountries().getCountriesElementAt(i).setVariantKey("var2");
    The article below will definetly help you in your requirement.

  • How to change the spelling correction language in Mail

    Hey!
    Often I have to write emails in different languages and I'm looking for a solution to change the spelling language by a click. My plan was to record the procedure of changing the language and then to add for every language one button to the mail tool bar. First I tried to record an AppleScript in Mail. Didn't work at all (actually the only app I found which records scripts is Finder). Then I recorded a similar task in Finder which works fine and tried to adopt it to Mail. It didn't work out. Has someone an idea how I can solve that problem.
    My simple training script what I tried to adopt for Mail (i just tried to change something in the Mail preferences, not the language):
    tell application "Finder" <--- replaced all "Finder" with "Mail"
    activate
    select Finder window 1
    open window of Finder preferences
    set folders open in new windows of Finder preferences to true
    close window of Finder preferences
    end tell
    Thanks
    Bastian

    Hi
    It's not that easy! Apart from the fact that Mail doesn't work the same way as Finder, it also doesn't have its own spell checker: it uses the system-wide AppleSpell service.
    The pane you see when you manually change the preferred spelling language in Mail (or TextEdit, or Safari) doesn't belong to Mail at all, and isn't directly accessible by AppleScript because AppleSpell is an invisible and unscriptable process.
    See this closed Apple Discussions thread for a brief indication of how you can change the preferred language using a shell script.
    And see this macoshints thread for an indication of the complexity of the issue.
    You need to know the "code" for each language used in the preferences file: "en_GB" for British English, "fr" for French etc etc. You would then need to wrap each shell script in an AppleScript "do shell script" command like this:
    do shell script "defaults write 'Apple Global Domain' 'NSPreferredSpellServerLanguage' \"fr\""
    to change the language to French.
    Unfortunately, I think you would also need to quit Mail and relaunch it before the change will take effect.

  • How to change "Full Name" in iCloud IMAP mail account information

    Brand new to this forum so please excuse any newbieisms. I am running OS X 10.7.5 I created an iCloud IMAP mail account so that I can sync with my iPhone.
    Windows Live is my original mail account. All is good except the "Full Name" in "Accounts" preferernces is somehow incorrect. When I send mail frm my Mac, this incorrect name shows in the "From" field. Mail sent from my iPhone shows my correct name as it appears in my phone cloud settings. The name doesn't sync in iCloud. All other syncing is good. When I try to change it manually in my Mac mail preferences, I get the message "the"Incoming Mail Server" field can not be empty" when I try to save the changes. The aforementioned field is not empty and is in fact greyed out as this was self populated upon creation of the account. I can't even change the case sensitivity of the name or I get the message. As a stop gap I have created an alias to send mail with, but would like a proper fix. Any ideas?

    If you created a new iCloud account it would have a new associated iCloud email account.  You wouldn't be able to move your current @icloud.com address to the new account.
    Just to double-check, after quitting (Command-Q) and re-opening Mail, did you start an new message and click the down-arrow next to From to see if the new sender name was available from the drop-down list (see image below)?  If so, you might try signing out of iCloud entirely.  To do this, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then sign back in and test Mail again.  (This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your Mac, but not from iCloud.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

  • How to change or remove my picture in Mail

    So I'm trying to change/remove the picture that's attached to my emails. I go into my user account under System Preferences and I find that I haven't assigned a picture there so I'm not sure where Mail is getting it from. I did copy a bunch of Mail files from my old computer so perhaps this came with them. Does anyone know how to change this?
    Thanks,

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
