just tried it, but don't like it. yes I see all the unread messages
but I don't see context (the rest of the thread) and it's all mixed in
one folder (which doesn't make sense - the folders are set up so that I
can easier manage the emails).
so I guess there's no way to go to the next unread message in
different folder... somewhat unconvenient
