I put the machine downstairs because a reinstall if a fan-intensive process, 
and this morning the machine was rebooted and everything seemed normal. To make 
sure I had a new OS I checked homebrew (it always complains with a new install) 
and yep, I had my new OS.

So I slowly went to Mail. And after checking that I did not have to reimport 
again all my stuff (or maybe it was done while I was sleeping) I checked the 
Flagged folder where I found a dozen "unread" messages. I did not remember that 
Flagged messages were labeled "unread" in the status bar so I unflagged one, 
reflagged it, and even with that "unread" status everything seemed to work.

So, here it is, for the time being I have a system that works seemingly as I 
expect it to work. That's a huge relief.
