Reporter, please take a look inside your inbox mbox file, which is located in
your profile under mail/%pop3server%/inbox. Search for the specified mail (which
will normally be located at the end of the file) and tell us the X-Mozilla
status from the mail header. Do you have a junk filter or any message filter
running?

If you can reproduce it every time, so I would consider, that you could test it
with a current nightly build of Thunderbird. Please aware that your profile
could become corrupted when using nightly builds, so make a backup of your data
before.

is your inbox set to view | unread only messages? If you read a new message,
then mark it unread again, switch to another folder, and back to the inbox, is
the message displayed?
