I am looking for an email client for the Mac which would have some functionality such as below.

First number is new email and second is total email count in the box.

When the box is clicked - it goes straight to that inbox.

I use Thunderbird and haven't found anything quite like this.

Anyone know of anything like this or similar maybe in Webmail format?

The closest I can think of is Sparrow, but it doesn't show you the total email count in its squares.

Thanks! I will look into Sparrow.

I am thinking, there is nothing quite like what I am after. I guess you would call it an E-Mail Dashboard.

Can Sparrow lite be configured to use pop over imap? I love the look of the app but I want a pop3 mail client.

Neither Sparrow nor Sparrow Lite have POP3 support.

Update on what I found to be a solution for now. :)

I found an extension called "Advanced Unread Folders".

It only shows the folders which have an unread message in them, so it greatly cleaned up my inbox view.
