Mailspring default folder: all accounts: unread

Hello everyone,

under settings–>folder i can set a Default Container Folder.

I would love to have the “unread folder” wich contains all Mailaccounts as my default folder. So whenever Mailspring opens, this folder is selected and not the global inbox.
But i dont know what to put in. Already tried “unread”.

Can someone help?

Regards

You don’t need a setting for this. Mailspring remembers whichever view was selected when you quit and reopens it on the next launch, and that includes the unified “Unread” view under All Accounts. Click Unread in the sidebar before you quit and it’ll be selected the next time Mailspring starts.

The “Default Container Folder” field in Preferences > Folders is unrelated — it’s for providers that require new folders to be created inside a parent folder (for example INBOX), so it’s the parent path Mailspring uses when you create a folder, not the view that opens at startup. You can leave it blank.
