If you find that the unread email count for a shared mailbox is displaying incorrect values, this can be reset by carrying out the following:


1..Edit the following file.


C: /Program Files/Hornbill/Supportworks server/conf/SwServerService.xml (Where C: /Program Files/Hornbill/ is the default installation folder)

2.. Set the following value to 1.

<InitFolderUnreadCounts value="1" />

3..Once you have done this you will need to stop then restart the SwMailService from the Server tab of the Server Configuration utility.

This happens due to a corrupt email in the system which could not be retrieved.
