check if it is read or unread

[Yokomie]

I am trying to make a Zimlet which checks if it is read or unread when a mail is opened from a mail list view.

I wrote a code like this.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disposition_Notification.prototype.match =
function(content, startIndex) {

this._ZmMailListController = this._appCtxt.getApp(ZmZimbraMail.MAIL_APP).getMai lListController();

alert("isUnread1 = " + this._ZmMailListController._getMsg().isUnread);
alert("isUnread2 = " + this._ZmMailListController._listView[this._ZmMailListController._currentView].getSelection()[0].isUnread);

};
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

But this code doesn't work well. Because when a mail is opened (for example, double clicked), mail status changes to "read". So when coming to this method, mail is already "read" all the time.

Is there a good way?

Listen for the change view event (notifyZimlets) and check to make sure the screen is the one you want. Since Zimbra will always mark something read when you select (unless you go back and unmark it) you can do your proccessing when the view is updated.
