I have tried manual and automatic Compress/Purge and neither get rid of the message count. SC>> What is the 4<*>? This is under the unread column, but I don't see SC>> any unread messages.

I synch all folders and as I read the messages it counts down until I get to 4 and then there are no more messages unread. When it syncs again it shows the new messages and then drops to 4 again as I read them.
