<p dir="auto">Sounds like a job for a smart mailbox. I have various smart mailboxes for showing only unread messages.</p>

<p dir="auto">Is there a reason for not using a smart mailbox?</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">oh - yes there is :)</p>
<p dir="auto">The use case I have is that when I read a mail from a person I often want to go find another mail from that person and searching for that just takes too long compared<br>
to go into the parent folder and locate it within it.</p>
<p dir="auto">And if it is for mailing list I'll like to see if there were other mails posted without having to change the smart mailbox or do a new search.</p>
<p dir="auto">Having a show/hide unread is built into all mail clients I know except mailmate and apple mail ;)<br>
