Actual behaviour
There are no total counters (only unread counters are available) for folders and/or mailbox. I cannot see amount of messages inside folder list or mailbox list.

Android version: 6.0.1
Account type (IMAP, POP3, WebDAV/Exchange): POP3

Research direction
Start by locating the mailbox list and folder list screens and tracing how their existing unread counters are populated. Determine where total message counts are available for POP3 accounts, then make both lists display unread and total counts while preserving the current unread-only display where appropriate.
