Outlook mail folders

[maximus]

Hi

I use rule sets to move mail from my inbox to folders/ sub folders as it is received - problem is the mail notification - i.e. show number of unread mails in bold, only works on the inbox or high level folders - where I have a folder within a folder unless you open the top tier folder up you cannot see the notification.
I don't really want to have all my folders open all the time , does anyone know of a hack to show nested folders containing unread messages ?

Assuming this is Outlook 2003/7?

Add them to your 'Favorite Folders', or use the 'Unread Mail' view.
