Q: How do I make my unread email count ACCURATE?

My email count is TOTALLY INACCURATE since either of the iOS 9 updates.  It shows phantom unread email counts.  No unread emails show up when it still shows a count. 

 

I am very afraid to try to delete an account and re-add it as stated in the suggestions.  Ever since getting this 5c phone, I have had EXTREME difficulty setting up email accounts on here.  FINALLY, earlier this year, it finally seemed to be working. 

 

Then, the iOS 9 updates hit.  DISASTER!  The mail counts are totally INACCURATE and totally USELESS!  How do I fix this? What settings can I check? What can I do?
