Most of people doesn't understand this simple problem.
When a mail is moved from one folder to another one (even while
with the
delete action) this is not normal that the characteristics of the mail
are changed. Someone told us that resetting the "unread" status is
done
by design; therefore this is a *BAD* design. But the developpers lives
in their gold-tower.
On the other hand this only happens if you do it manually. When a
filter
moves something to the trash the 'unread' status sticks.
Since filters can move messages to the Trash folder, but don't have any
other explicit "Delete" operation, and in SeaMonkey 1.1 deleting a
message (from anything folder other than the Trash folder) just moves
it to the Trash folder, "deleting" is the same as "moving to the Trash
folder" (in SeaMonkey 1.1).
Why break that correspondence? SeaMonkey 2 filters don't differentiate
between between deleting and moving to Trash, do they?

You are correct SM 2 filters do not differentiate between deleting and
moving to Trash. However, that is not the subject of this discussion.
The discussion is centered on what happens when you manually delete a
message. In SM2, "deleting" an "unread" message moves it to trash and
classifies it as "unread". However, in SM2, "moving" an "unread" message
to Trash changes the status to "read". It should leave the status as
"unread" just as "moving" (or using a filter) does.
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=465116 for a proposed
fix for this problem.
If your work in Three pane Mode http://screencast.com/t/ZDA2ZTUwO
the click the devider between the Subjects (header) and content
(preview) so you see similar to this. http://screencast.com/t/MjU0MjZiY
anything you drag to to trash or or click on delete button they will
remain unread (http://screencast.com/t/MjNjNjE1N). as long as they
remain unread they will remain unread even in trash.
If you have set any other way so you view the contents the it is a read
message. SM doesn't work any diffiferent than Communicator did in this
respect.
I work in "Three pane" Mode - but deleting an unread message put it in
the trash as readed.
Your examples show us news messages, not mail messages. We have the
problem with mail messages.
