Highlight the inbox parent folder when a subfolder has a new mess.

[Guest]

I am using rules to have my incoming email go into folders for each client
and coworker's folders. I have folders with subfolders. If the folder is
collapsed I do not see the subfolders then I cannot see if a new email has
come in. It would be nice if the parent folder is highlighted showing that a
subfolder has new mail. I have to keep all my folders expanded and check the
entire list to see if new mail is in. On my new computer there is less screen
resolution so I have to scroll the folder tree to view it all. Please add
this feature!

what version of Outlook are you using?
with Outlook 2003 that folder could be added to your Favorites and the
unread count would be shown there.
