A rule that places a new email in a sub Folder doesnt get displayed

[u828576]

Create a folder; Create a rule that moves new mails to that folder; Happy
as larry. When a new mail arrives, outlook shows a blue numeric value next
to the folder to indicate unread messages.

However, if you add another folder to the folder created above, ie a sub
folder and create a rule to move new email, you have to have the tree fully
extended to be informed of a new email.

Is there a way to see if an new email has been sent to a sub folder without
having the tree list expanded?

Cheers
