Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Send an email to you and don't read it
  2. Send another email in the same thread, and read it
Expected behavior
  • Mailbox unread count is good, 1
  • In messages list, I have the unread marker on the thread containing an unread mail
Actual behavior
  • Mailbox unread count is good, 1
  • In message list, there is no marker nor tag to express the fact that the unread message is in this thread.
  • If you open the thread, you can see the older unread message here (with bold subject)

Research direction

Reproduce the case in the message list: leave an older message unread, read a newer message in the same thread, and compare the mailbox count with the thread marker. Trace the message-list entry point and verify that the thread visibly indicates an unread message while preserving the existing count and thread view behavior.
