icloud mail VIP box showing unread mail

There's an unread notification next to two of the VIP mailboxes. There are no actual unread mails in those mailboxes. Revoked the VIP status, logged out, logged back in, reinstated VIP status and the unread notification showed up again. Added new VIP mailbox for myself (different Adress) sent an email to iCloud, selected mail and unread notification disappeared imediately.

Same issue with iOS 6. I have no mail at all in the VIP box yet 1 is unread.

Same problem accesing iCloud mail via Safari on MBP Retina running 10.8.2. VIP shows 42 unread emails and specific VIPs show unread emails (I assume that is what the number means). Same in Chrome (although total is 4r0, not 42). No problem on iPhone, iPad or Apple Mail

Same issue as glev1.

Also have the same issue. On two macs no problem it shows read, same for Iphone. But when I login to it through web browser at work I get the same unread problem on all the VIP contacts.

Arrg, Apple is getting really annoying lately with these problems and no one to fix it. Even junk mail is not filtering on same email accounts I flagged many times.

Im sure apple will correct this issue with there regular updates.

Ya ok I believe that one like I believe the web interface will work well.

Seriously, for 10 plus years anyone elses web interface updates on the fly, filters, etc. This is not some radical new technology despite what Apple seems to market it as.

That's not a very helpful comment unless you´re an Apple employee who has something substantial to say regarding the issue.

I mean, for goodness sake it's not like Apple needs anyone roaming the forums for bug reports and soothing disgruntled customers. What is it with Apple that people feel they need to defend them as if they were a helpless child? Wake up already! Apple is the worlds most valuable company. They make errors and that's all right but it's also absolutely okay to not be happy with their products and services.

Making errors sure I will give that to them. Having no way to contact support for the product is a completely different issue. Maybe you need to wake up because being the worlds most valuable company has nothing to do with quality of service. The day the US stock market is based on logic and not emotion will be the day traders are not in the pits.

Another days topic though so move on.

Anyways I can and will call it out on a forum as there is no other place, not even an email.

Deal with it!

@807 Recordings I was actually criticizing (and replying to) snowblinds comment and agreeing with you.

As I do with your remarks on the stock market. Just to make that clear.

Anyways I'm still unhappy with the unread email count.

I was just being general not directed at anyone. Blahh sometimes things don't come out right on forums 🙂

But ya, Edit:

I like Apple, but no fan boy. I like BMW, Mercedes to but will also call them on their shiasser.

If your products (any company) has such good products then support should be there free, and easily to access. Being in IT for over 20years I have seen many a good company fall for similar reasons.

Microsoft,

Sun,

SGI,

IBM,

and the list goes on, and they had their fans also.

I´m glad it helped you. I will try it again not using the webinterface for a while. If it helped for you it might help for me.

Seems someone is reading the forums as today my VIP seems to be working correctly.

Cross fingers*🙂

Mine are not; all my messages from my VIP contacts are listed as unread despite the fact they clearly are read (as proved by sorting by unread status.)
