Say, I have many mailboxes that have many new messages, but now I have no so
much time to see all of them, so I quickly enter mailboxes one by one, then
just pick the message I'm got most of interested, leave the remaining messges
for viewing them when I have time.  Serveral hours later, I have time, I want
to see the new messages that I haven't seen last time, but now, all mailboxes
haven't any flags, so I have to go through all of them to see if there are new
message in them or not.
