Description
Steps to reproduce
I don't know how to reproduce, it just happens sometimes when a new email arrives.
Expected behavior
A newly arrived email should show up in the messages list.
Actual behavior
The messages list doesn't show the email, not even after switching folders back and forth, or reloading the page.
In the sidebar the folder info correctly shows one unread email. Clicking "Repair mailbox" from the folder's context menu doesn't help.
Here's a screenshot:
Mail app version
4.2.0 rcX
Nextcloud version

Mailserver or service

Operating system

Research direction
Start by investigating the messages list behavior in Mail 4.2.0 with Nextcloud 31, comparing it with the sidebar's unread count and the Repair mailbox action. Reproduce the missing-email state if possible, then confirm that newly arrived emails appear in the messages list after normal folder navigation or reload.
