2.24.3 here as well (Ubuntu Intrepid).  I agree with Alex.  Mis-count is
constant.  I have a search folder that includes my "Sent" mail folder.
Every time I reply to someone's e-mail, the unread message count becomes
1.  This makes me think there is a new e-mail, but it's really just
because I sent a mail.  I have no idea why this is happening because
sent mails are not "unread", but maybe somewhere inside Evolution's
logic a sent message is unread at a certain point in processing.

First VFolders of VFolders are gone, now this.  It's really sad to see
such major regressions in a stable release.  I would have been fine with
2.22's backend.  Can anyone tell me what *improvements* are in this
release, other than the fact that the backend storage format was changed
to SQLite?  I have over 10GB of mail in Evolution and I don't think I
notice much of a performance difference between 2.22/2.24, yet now I
have all these regressions and it's making me want to stop using Evo
altogether.  Anyone?  *sigh*
