Feature request: Add Button "Mark all emails as seen"

Open teertinker opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

Some days I got lots of emails that I am going to read later. Clicking on each mail in the indicator is thus a "big" workload. I thus would like to mark all email in mailnag as seen, in order focus on incoming new mails.

Currently I am using a small bash script to do this:

!/bin/bash

PID=pidof mailnag kill $PID sed -i 's/,0/,1/g' /home/user/.config/mailnag/mailnag.dat mailnag

It would, however, be much more convenient if there was a button in the indicator doing this job.

Anyways Mailnag is a great application and one of the things that makes working with Ubuntu so great.

The gnome-shell extension already has this feature. Adding it to the Ubuntu Unity plugin is currently not possible (without using hacks) since the actions in the indicator menu don't have access to the maillist. Implementing it in a clean way would require changes in the mailnag dbus api.
