Windows notification buttons

An option to not open the main windows when marking an email as read

The Problem

When clicking the mark as read, it opens the main window. I want to just mark it as read as its a mail I dont need to open.

Proposed Solution

a toggle in settings to let window be closed when clicked on notification

This is now implemented! Mailspring 1.19.1 upgraded to Electron 41, which enabled Windows toast notifications with proper action buttons — including inline reply, Archive, and Mark as Read — that work without opening the main window.

Mailspring 1.20.0 then fixed a race condition that was causing these buttons to be unreliable in some cases. If you were seeing the buttons appear but not always work, updating to 1.20.0 should resolve that.
