In Claws Mail 4.0.0 running on Linux Mint Mate 21.3, a message that I
just sent to that account, to check how it is displayed as a new and
unread message,
in the folders pane, shows as a new message
in the folders pane, shows as an unread message
in the Inbox folder pane listing the messages in the Inbox folder, the
message index information is displayed as bold.
