Version 3.1.3
Yet another attempt to adjust the logic to do a better job of detecting all messages.
Note: The scan regexp now controls which folders are scanned regularly, not just on startup.

Version 3.1.2
Another attempt at detecting new messages more reliably, i.e., more workarounds for Thunderbird bugs that are preventing this add-on from being notified reliably when new messages arrive.
- Source code released under Mozilla Public License, version 2.0
Version 3.1.1
The add-on still isn't successfully detecting all new messages on startup, I think because the new mail received listener isn't being called for all of them (i.e., a Thunderbird bug), so this release is another attempt to work around that.

Version 3.1.0
Allow user to specify folders to be scanned on startup
Sometimes on startup Thunderbird starts fetching new messages from the mail server before all add-ons have finished initializing. New messages may therefore be fetched from the server before Remote Content By Folder (RCBF) has started listening for new messages, resulting in the the policies specified by the RCBF not being applied to those messages.
To address this, the add-on now allowed the user to specify a regexp indicating which folders should be scanned for new messages on startup. This regexp is not set by default, since I don't want the add-on to do anything that the user hasn't explicitly configured, but the value a user is most likely to want to put in this setting is `^Inbox$`, so all new messages in the inbox will have the proper RCBF policy applied.
Note that a folder's name still has to match the allow or block regexp for this new setting to have any effect on it.
