No, but I have heard several people call in to the Today in iOS Podcast who had the same issue and this issue always concerned gmail accounts. How can somebody have 96,000 or whatever ridiculous number of unread emails?

I use Gmail, and I only see that the messages I haven't read yet, either on my iPhone or my PC, show up as unread. I see the same thing on my PC or my iPhone. I assume the person who asked the question is seeing thousands of unread messages on their iPhone and would see the same thing on their PC or any other system where they check their email. Are you saying that if you had thousands of unread messages on your Exchange account, even when viewing it on your PC, you'd only see a handful of those unread messages on your iPhone?
