Description
Steps to reproduce

Actual behavior

Mailserver or service
PurelyMail
Operating system
Ubuntu
PHP engine version
PHP 8.2
Web server

Research direction
Start by reproducing the mismatch in the Mail app using the reported steps and compare the inbox folder count with messages marked by a blue dot. Check whether the behavior still occurs in Mail app 3.3.0-alpha.1 with PurelyMail; done means both unread counts match after refreshing.
