Q: Badge app icons won't stay off

I have five different email accounts set up on my iPhone. I have set the notifications so that only one of them (the one I use for personal emails) has badge apps. That way the email account I use for shopping websites and other non-important emails does not have badges. I get dozens of emails per day from the shopping websites but only a few from my personal email. The personal email is the only badge app I want so I can see on my home screen if I have an "important" email. So I have all the notifications for badge apps turned off for my nonessential emails. However I will turn on my phone and suddenly find a badge app on my "mail" icon that says "445" or something that tells me one or more of the badge apps for my nonessential emails have mysteriously turned themselves back on. I know I'm doing it correctly because it works correctly for a couple of days. Then something happens and all of a sudden I have to fix several of them. How could this be happening? Thank you.

iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
