Well, starting with stuff that's broken for me...

When marking a message as seen using a webmail client, kmail still leaves the 
message marked as unread on my regular IMAP account.  This works on the 
initial load of the folder, but as soon as I switch away and come back, it's 
marked as unread again.  I'm not sure what causes that bug, but I'm hoping 
someone can point me in the correct direction.

From what I can tell, this other path follows the slotGetLastMessagesResult() 
branch, instead of the slotListFolderResult() branch.  The 
slotGetLastMessagesResult() eventually emits numUnreadMsgsChanged(), which 
causes postProcessNewMail() to run.  This is where I get a little lost.  I 
don't think I want to trace through the filters, as I think those are just 
the rules that the user creates.  So, this status field is obviously cached 
somewhere, but where?

I've attached my quick fix for the first issue.  I'm sure there's a better way 
to do this, so I'd appreciate comments.  BTW, what's the difference between 
KMMsgStatusOld and KMMsgStatusRead?
