Hi Jeffrey
Could you please try to explain me the exact behavior you're experiencing, i couldn't really understand what you were trying to point out. Does evolution shows "0 mails" when the folders are empty?, does it shows the amount of mails containing another folder or you don't want evolution to show anything when there's no items in the folder.

Thanks in advance

I am talking about the junk mail folder
If I had 4 junk mails in this folder, then cleaned it out....the FOLDER
does not show a number, but the titlebar of evolution window still shows
that there are 4 items....It looks as if the title bar is not being updated
to show 0 items (or what ever the wording is).

I believe that the folder number on the title bar window is updated when
evolution starts up and if stuff is added to the folder. To my
recollection, I don't know if the number updates if the number of items
goes up or down....I have noted the issue only when there was nothing in
the junk folder.

Let me know if this explains it better....I could include a screen capture
later tonight (If I get junk filtered....)
