  belongs_to :folder, :counter_cache => true # rails default counter cache
  # hash syntax
  # counter_cache_with_conditions :association, :association_column_name, attribute: value
  counter_cache_with_conditions :folder, :unread_messages_count, unread: true

  # lambda syntax
  # counter_cache_with_conditions :association, :association_column_name, [:attribute], lambda{|attribute| ... }
  # lambda syntax need [:used_attributes_array] because it need to track changes, and lambda will be called only when attributes are changed
