Vista - What causes a quickview to refresh?

Got a new e-mail. I looked at it in the Inbox of the account in which
it was received (I have my accounts setup separately instead of pile all
their e-mails into the global Inbox). After reading that e-mail, I
deleted it. So not only was it read but also no longer in the Inbox.
However, the "Unread e-mail" quickview did not get refresh to reflect
the changes. When I went into that quickview folder, the e-mail was
still listed and even showed in the preview pane. I then selected a
different folder and reselected that quickview folder which then got it
refreshed so the e-mail was no longer listed there.

So in the Inbox of the account, I read and deleted an e-mail but the
unread quickview still listed that e-mail. It wasn't until I visited
the quickview folder, switched out to another folder, and switched back
into that quickview folder when the message got removed from its list.
Maybe I was just too fast. What prods the quickview folders to get
updated?

Are you running the new Wave 3 beta? I don't have the persistent
view in the "Unread e-mail" quick view, but I still have the old
bug where the last message deleted in a folder still displays in
the reading pane. One wonders what the Wave 3 developers did
with all the bugs we submitted on build 12.00.1606 way back in
November 2007...

Using verion 12.0.1606. I only had time one evening to glance at the
beta version in a virtual machine but didn't go to do much with it. I
wasted too much time finding bugs in WLMessenger beta.

I did some searching and found that the quickviews can get screwed up if
you delete folders, unsubscribe from a newsgroup, or basically do just
about anything regarding maintenance of the organization of your
folders. I did the trick of deleting the SeachVersion registry data
item and that fixed the problem (except, like you say, the last selected
item remains displayed in the preview pane after deleting the item).

I haven't had time to verify whether Wave 3 fixed that broken
Quick Views bug.

Personally I would prefer if Microsoft would embrace "saved searches"
instead of quickviews, the same as is available in Thunderbird. The
*user* gets to pick which folders to include the search and under what
criteria to include for items from those selected folders. For example,
the "Unread e-mails" quickview is worthless and misleading because of
some rules that I have that save *copies* of mails which ends up
doubling the count in this quickview. I'd prefer an "Unread inbox"
quickview that showed unread items in all inboxes. Letting the user
define and save a search as a quickview would go a long ways towards
letting the user configure just what kind of quickview they want.
