Number of unread messages in app Mail

Hello

I have 3 email accounts within the app Mail.

The icon says 37 unread emails.

Going to global inbox - filter unread - I get empty list.

Going to search bar - selection see unread messages - the 37 appear - they are all within folders - not anymore in inbox - OR they are older than 1 month.

What the number on the icon is supposed to show?

The total number of unread whatever their folders and age?

OR the number of unread within the inbox?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Hello

Thank you

so why the unread emails - in Inbox - don’t show up when I click on filter unread?

One thing to add: I set up 1 month to synchronize for the emails. Not all.

map it should take this scope as. Ou faites - no?

maybe I am asking too much to Mail? ;-)

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities.

The notification badge on the App shows the total number of unread messages from all the inboxes, but not from custom folders.
