I have been trying to use nbiff with Plasma 6 Wayland and it seems to launch and count show the correct number of messages on KDE Plasma but when I close thunderbird nbiff closes as well.

Here is the error message I see in the terminal:

How to make this work properly? Thank you!

I was trying to mash up a shell script that runs nbiff when Thunderbird starts, and let nbiff exit when Thunderbird exits:

~/.nbiff/systray/Run_nbiff nbiff_qt5.py & pid1=$! && thunderbird; kill $pid1

This should ideally kill nbiff when thunderbird exits (as it works for most programs); however, the systray still hangs around.

So I have to kill the process group:

~/.nbiff/systray/Run_nbiff nbiff_qt5.py & pid1=$! && thunderbird; pkill -P $pid1

But I don't know if I'm missing some cleanup routine by doing so.

Would you please provide an easy way to kill nbiff gracefully, or to run/exit nbiff alongside Thunderbird instead of starting with the DE?

When an email is filtered to another folder, nbiff double counts it.

In Troubleshooting.md the "Preview Changes" link doesn't work at the start of the "Where to begin" section. (So I couldn't start, lol)

Installed in Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon with TB 78.14.0 and it doesn't work for me, hence looking at Troubleshooting.

Have been desperate for something like this for years.
