I see this occasionally on an unpatched mutt with courier-imap and
header cacheing. Specifically it seems to go something like this:
read a message (clearing any 'new' flag), mark it as 'new' with 'N',
then mark it as 'read' with 'N'. Close the mailbox, reopen and the
message is 'new' again.
I tend to keep the same mailbox open for weeks on end, so possibly
this only happens when the mailbox is closed abruptly.
