POP accounts don't show bold when they have new or unread mail

I'm running the new version of Entourage (2008) and have a whole slew of different e-mail accounts.
On the left, all my accounts show... with folders for the Exchange accounts and IMAP accounts. When new mail or unread mail is here, the folder is in bold.
The two POP accounts I have are on the list but, do not show bold when there is new or unread mail, like the exchange and IMAP accounts.
How can I get then to show bold, too? They are Yahoo business mail accounts, if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance.

POP mail will come into the Inbox or whatever folder you have as their
destination. All folders for POP will go under the "On My Computer". OMC
will not show the number of messages, but the Inbox and other folders will
show unread. Just toggle "On My Computer" to see your folders.

Entourage 2008 has the ability to add favorite folders to the Favorites Bar.
This allows you to keep folders open and still easily get to one waaaaay
down on the list by clicking on it in the Favorites Bar.

Also in Entourage 2008, the default account is listed on top. So if an
Exchange or IMAP account is your default, it will show on top rather than
"On My Computer".

Hope this answers your question.
