Comment 6 for bug 461505

On my system spam was also displayed the same way as regular new messages so I wrote a patch. It removes the event handler binding for OnItemAdded() whose junk checking didn't work for me. Instead I added a new event handler msgsClassified() which is called after messages have passed the junk filter. This function then calls the old OnItemAdded() to make the change as minimal as possible. The patch is relative to the current version 1.1 (not trunk).

To try out the patch, replace thunderbird-indicator.jar under ~/.<email address hidden>/chrome/ with the version attached to this post.
