Gmail extensions mail count is not working

The Gmail inbox feed is recently having issues updating. It is only updating after 2 consecutive and different emails have been marked as unread.

This is the official Gmail inbox atom feed API which is having issues as of May 30th and which many extensions are using: https://developers.google.com/gmail/gmail_inbox_feed

It is affecting all Gmail checking extensions:

  • Google Mail Checker by Google
  • Checker Plus for Gmail by Jason Savard
  • and more...

Note, the same issue can also be reproduced by marking emails as read instead of unread.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Go to Gmail and mark an email as unread
  2. Click refresh in the "Checker Plus for Gmail" popup window or wait 1 minute in the Google Mail Checker
  3. Go to Gmail and mark another email as unread
  4. Click refresh in the "Checker Plus for Gmail" popup window or wait 1 minute in the Google Mail Checker

The unread mail count is not correctly displaying the number of unread emails with each mark as unread after refreshing. It only working after 2 consecutive mark as unread on different emails.

Are there workarounds or alternatives that do the same thing, or do I need to wait for Google to fix it?

Can you set the number of messages per page in Gmail?

At the top, click the button labeled "See all settings" to go to the full Settings menu. 3. Next to where it says "Maximum page size," click the drop-down menu and select how many email conversations you'd like to be displayed per page. The default number is 50 emails per page.

What is the maximum number of mails can be displayed in Gmail in laptop window?

There's no particular limit to the number of pages of emails you can have but Gmail does have an inbox size limit of 15GB, so eventually, you will run out of space.
