Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Thunderbird for Android 18.0 using the Unified inbox and the right-swipe action described in the report. Trace the Unified inbox swipe handling and verify that the first swipe deletes the message rather than only marking it read; done means the reported reproduction steps no longer require a second swipe.
