All,

In the normal course of operation this afternoon (4.2b6), I too am now
experiencing the off-by-one error -- in my In Tray.

I received and read some mail.  After this, I noticed that the In Tray
was still bolded, yet there were no unread messages to be found.  A few
minutes later I received a new piece of mail, totalling one piece of
unread mail, and the In Tray became unbold.  At this point I realised
that when there are no unread messages, the status display indicates
there are -1 unread messages.  It seems the rule for bolding the In Tray
is to do so when unread != 0, which is the case for -1.

I can't discern what triggered this.

"Rebuilding the sort indices" did not solve the problem.  However,
"verifying the consistency of database records" appears to have.
