 Sorry, what do you mean?

 Right... this list was initially used for what the explanation says it is
but then it was reused for many other things.

 I do... Also, it doesn't make much sense to have to do something special
(like mark as read) for a sent mail folder, especially if you have several
of them.

 I think what you really want is to not show SentMail folder as having new
mail in the tree, don't you? Because otherwise I simply don't understand
what is the problem with having the messages as unread in it.

 All pure-HTML messages like this go directly to Junk folder here...
Outlook usually (I do believe that it does it by default) sends
multipart/alternative messages, i.e. they contain both HTML and text parts.
Sending pure HTML messages is just plain evil and I refuse to do anything
to support this. Also, you already have the HTML viewer so you may view
them if you really have to. But it would be much better to let the people
sending you crap like this know that they can keep their precious HTML
while still sending something readable in all mailers.
