Flagged folder shows messages as unread and I'd like it to stop

It's cool that Mountain Lion brought a flagged folder to Mail. But I've obviously read the messages I've flagged and this folder shows every flagged message like it's new.


I try to keep my inbox near zero, so it's annoying to have a bunch of messages nagging at me as if they were unread. Does anyone know how I can get these messages to stop showing up as unread?

I don't understand why anyone thought it would be a good idea to have a count of flagged items that looks exactly like the unread message count, and then not have an option to disable this behavior.


Same question here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4141835?start=0&tstart=0


It doesn't look like there's anyway to turn this off from within the Mail.app, but hopefully someone smart will find a hidden preference that can. Anyone?
