Apple Mail Total Count

Hi all,

Apple Mail - Sonoma

I have a third-party server and I can see that in a particular folder there are x amount emails

  • in Apple mail when I rebuild that mailbox it says it is importing the same x amount. However, when it has completed, the total on top does not match what was just imported and generally is somewhat less.

syncronize does not help this.

  • I would prefer to not have to delete and re-create the account from scratch.

Question: how can I get these totals to match in Apple Mail?
