Full Version: Mail Monitor: Left click icon to mark all read?

Would it be possible to add a feature to Mail Monitor where left clicking the icon button just marks all mail as read in the mail list?

I like getting the animated notification that one of my accounts has new mail, but I don't use the mail list. I just open my browser window to gmail to see what the new mail is.

Currently, I always have to right click on the icon and select the menu item "Mark all as Read" each time.
Just left clicking would be a lot faster.

Thanks!
Try the configuration as in attached screenshot.
Set:
Mail reader -> <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.gmail.com">http://www.gmail.com</a><!-- m -->
Open the Mail List on click -> OFF
Mark all messages as Read on running mail reader -> ON

Now you can run browser with the gmail and mark all messages as read with one click.
Getting closer...

I always have my browser open (Chrome), and almost always have a browser tab open to gmail.
When I click the button now, it opens a new gmail browser tab.

Is there a way to tell it to just go to the already open gmail tab?

If not, is there a way to say "Mark All as Read, but don't do anything else?"
Now I see the problem. Currently this is impossibe. I'll make this feature in the next versions.

As temporary solution:
Create the file with name someting like "activatechrome.vbs"
with content:
Code:
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.AppActivate "chrome"

Set this file as mail reader. This script will activate the chrome window and mark messages as read.
Thanks!!
