Here, the unread marks are notoriously bad at getting out-of-synch. If
it's cause for concern for someone, we "Mark All Read" to zero out the
unread marks and start over. That appears to work to varying degrees --
for some people, we only need to do it once, for the others, we have to
reset on a regular basis.
As for what you were trying to accomplish, I believe someone else already
suggested my answer -- CTL - A to select all, and look at the count on the
status bar.

Counting emails in an inbox

I have a few users who fail to manage the contents of their inbox. To
remedy this I want to educate them about reducing the number of emails
kept in the inbox and suggest that at all times they should never have
more than x number of documents in their inbox.
So in my mail file I marked all the email as unread. The results show that
I have 110 (in parentheses) unread emails in my inbox when in reality I
have four emails in my inbox. Why would this number be so far off from the
correct number of documents in my inbox?
Or how can I instruct my users to determine themselves (accurately) how
many emails they have in their inbox? (My thought was to have them flag
everything as unread - but my test (described above) didn't provide an
accurate count.
