> If repairing the folder helps,

In fact, “Repair Folder” (see Comment #8 / Comment #15) is causing the problem for me.

STR:
1. Unsubscribe group.
2. Close Thunderbird.
3. Make sure that all group files in the profile have been deleted.
4. Start Thunderbird.
5. Subscribe to the group.
6. "Group" -> Context menu -> Properties -> /Synchronization\
    => [x] Select this folder for offline use
7. "Group" -> Context menu -> Properties -> /Synchronization\
    => [Download Now]
8. Select "Group"
9. Menu -> Message -> Mark -> All Read
10. Restart Thunderbird

Check: all articles are still read

11. "Group" -> Context menu -> Properties -> /General Information\
    => [Repair Folder]

Check: closed threads have underscore now.

12. Select an article and Menu -> Go -> Next -> Unread Message

Thunderbird opens all Threads but doesn't find any unread articles.
