Forums:

basically it seems that if the email is in another category other than the Primary label in my inbox x-notifier doesnt pick it up as a recieved email. you see two of my main inboxes have the Categories lables setup so the emails are split between primary, social, updates and forums but if the emails dont show up under the primary label the addon doesnt pick up any emails at all, is there a setting lm missing because l changed to this addon as it seemed the best to control multiple accounts that actually worked on the latest firefox in a somewhat similar way to Gmail manager which seemed to break past firefox 32.0.

In X-notifier Options uncheck the 'Notify inbox only' option for your Gmail account.

For additional requirements you can use this about:config feature:

(You want to set enableCategory to 2)

thats the ticket, l was thinking that setting would show spam as well, which is why l didnt test. much appreciated. dont tell me there is a simple way to change the icon colour when l recieve a email? (l have all three accounts l have setup along my bottom task bar) as l miss the icon changing to a blue envelope.. tbh l dont care what colour it is but it would been nice if the icon changed colour when an email arrived.
