Ooh, ooh, I know this one!
Do you have the mail.app GPG plugin (GPGMail, from sente.ch) installed? The
behaviour you described can be caused by that plugin, but there's a
workaround:
Open "Preferences" and select the GPGMail screen
Select the "Viewing" tab
Make sure both of the "Even if Unread" checkboxes are off
Note that these are greyed out if "Authenticate automatically" and "Decrypt
automatically" are unchecked,
in which case check those boxes, uncheck the two "even if unread" boxes,
then uncheck the "...automatically" preferences again.
Hope this helps,
Colm
