How to get number of unread gmail emails, not unread conversations

I need to get 10 pushed emails using gmail android app. I start sending 10 emails and force android sync to check inbox. After that I get notification about incoming mail. How can I get the number of incoming emails, gmail API provides only NUM_UNREAD_CONVERSATIONS not the number of unread emails in conversation. Maybe there is another way to query gmail content resolver?

Solution

  • So I finally found possible solution, this worked for me: turn off message threading

    Now NUM_UNREAD_CONVERSATIONS flag gives me the number of unread emails
