[Users] About 'new mail' and Gmail and notification pop-up.

Hello.
I use Claws 3.8.0 in Debian sid/Xfce and have the notification plugin
installed from the Debian package claws-mail-multi-notifier.
I have only two Gmail accounts set up in Claws. I noticed that there
isn't never a 'new' mail as all new mails are treated as 'unread' and
I thought that's ok as maybe it's just how it works with webmail.
But the pop-up notification (libnotify) never worked, neither with new
mails nor by hovering the tray icon (I suppose it should work in both
cases from what I understood from the preferences). Tray icon hovering
only shows a normal tooltip.
Then I put 1+1 and got it that maybe it isn't working simply because
it works only with 'new' mails and not with 'unread' ones. Did I get
it right?
If so, is there a way to tweak it to show 'unread' mails (maybe have
to modify the source code)?
If not, this would be a feature request.

Thank you.
