Flagged email (I had over 200) do not appear in the "Flagged" mailbox after the Yosemite upgrade. If I scroll and find one, and click on it, it is added to the list. That's problematic. Anyone else seeing this issue? I can work around it, but it will take time and is fraught with potential for a miss.
OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Flagged mail depends on Spotlight. Any chance you're rebuilding the Spotlight index?
If not, perhaps the Spotlight index is bad. You can rebuild it by going to Spotlight in System Preferences, adding your hard drive to the "Privacy" area, waiting 10 seconds, and removing it. After the index is rebuilt (this could take a few hours), flags should work.

Chances are it's a symptom of the broader the issue reported here (which for some of us first appeared in Mavericks):
Mail Search & Smart Folder bugs in Mavericks still not fixed in Yosemite?!
Search and Smart Folders not Working on Mail
Yosemite Mail is unable to list search results
Is search otherwise working well for you? What about Smart Folders other than Flagged?
Thank you. I did not realize that the flags are tied into Spotlight. I left it alone overnight, and when I came back to it the next morning, all flags had re-appeared. Cheers, David
Thank you, that hopefully will work.
Similar issue: smart flag folders show no-more flagged mails, differently coloured flagged ones, never-been-flagged mails.
