for GUI apps, i'd take a close look at Thunderbird,

in Thunderbird i mainly use filters

something approaching your desired behavior is that one can "star"
threads and then use "go to next starred message" as one way to
selectively read through a mail box; lots of other options -- it's the
richest GUI email client on Mac
Its IMAP behaviour is *way* better than Mail.app too. I read this list
from Gmail's IMAP server in Thunderbird. When I attempt to do that with
Mail.app it's a disaster. (Mail.app is getting better. One of these
days I expect I'll be able to switch to it.)
I know the issue you're describing, Larry. It's not a problem if I use
Thunderbird.
