Thunderbird Junk Mail

Inbox / Sent / Deleted / Drafts folders all show a message count next to each folder.
i.e Inbox 6 etc etc
All except the Junk mail Folder for some reason
Is there a setting somewhere to show a message count in Junk mail folder ???
TIA

    The number in brackets is the number of unread items. The junk filter is set to mark junk as read.

    To change this setting go to options>account settings>junk settings>global junk preferences then untick the box which says 'mark junk as read'.

    Maybe the messages are being filtered by your email provider and being marked as junk & read by them, not TB?

    Tried filtering mail by the sender @ addon to show the proper email address.

    But it wont sort them, maybe too late if they hit the spam folder?
