Bug Description

Hi

Brilliant program. Have only been using it a few hours and find it really handy. I have noticed that it holds a list of all emails that have come in since it's been running, not just the current unread ones in the folder. Would it be possible to add the option to remove these please? Once I've read an email I don't want it showing up

Looks as though this has been triaged? But just want to add my support for this change. Would love it if the app updated itself. As the original OP wrote, once the E-Mail has been read at Gmail, the app ought to recognize that and update itself.

This would indeed be a very nice option. I like the program, it does what I need perfectly. But I only use the alerts to inform me about incoming email. Then after I have red my new message(s) in gmail it would be nice not to have to also go to the gmail watcher app seperately and reload it there manually (to change the messenger icon at least from blue back into grey again)..
Otherwise very useful program!

I completely agree with the above commenters. I have been using Gmail Watcher for a while and it used to behave that way -- not sure why that function has since been removed.
