Problem you are trying to solve
When I tag email with a star/flag, it isn't displayed in mail widget on home screen. So, I don't know which email has the star and which hasn't.
Suggested solution
Display stars in mail widget like inside the app.

Research direction
Start at the Android mail widget and compare its rendering with the in-app mail view, where stars are already displayed. Confirm how starred and unstarred messages are represented, then verify that the home-screen widget visibly distinguishes them for the same messages.
