smart box mail indicates one unread email

I have already rebuilt the account several times. I removed the smart box mail. I recreated it but it doesn't change anything: it always indicates that there is an email to read, which it doesn't show.

Anyone have advice?

Thank you.

Hey mauroconta,


We'd be happy to help out. There's a couple of ways you could tackle this issue. The first is by filtering to only show unread emails. You can do this one of two ways. Either by going to View > Filter > Enable Messages Filter and ensure Unread is selected or by tapping on the Filter icon above your Messages list as shown here:


The Mail window showing the toolbar above the message list, where Mail indicates which filters, such as “Only from VIP,” are applied.


If that doesn't show the unread email for you to view, you can also just right-click or secondary click on the Inbox affected and choose to "Mark All Messages as Read"


For more info on using filters, check out: Filter emails in Mail on Mac


We hope this helps out.


Take care!
