FWIW, with the very latest enterprise version I have noticed a similar 
problem. It occurs intermittently with messages in IMAP folders. Most 
of the time it's just the last message in a thread that cannot be 
marked as unread. When I mark the whole thread as unread then the 
status of the problematic message is also marked as unread. I'll keep 
an eye on it to make out a pattern.

Now that I think about it I have a theory:
Maybe for some reason KMail sometimes changes the status in the 
KMMessage object, but not in the corresponding KMMsgInfo object (or 
vice-versa?). So this bug might have been introduced by my change which 
prevents crashes due to the former KMMsgInfo object by KMMessage object 
replacement. Now the KMMsgInfo object is no longer destroyed, but kept 
around and re-used when the KMMessage object is destroyed. I have 
warned about possible inconsistencies due to changes in the KMMessage 
object not being applied to the KMMsgInfo object. Anyway, it's just a 
guess. Maybe there's still another problem.

Ingo
