Not sure what smartphones you have there but I have a permanent IDLE
connection from mine, as on the desktop with Thunderbird. If disabling
IDLE in Thunderbird is part of the workaround, then I think IDLE
implementation is the problem. I'm not using IDLE for fun, I want to see
new messages as they arrive. That's how modern event-driven systems
work. Polling is from the 90s.

But since nobody was able to even locate the problem as of today, and
given the open secret that Thunderbird is merely in maintenance mode for
quite some time, I don't believe anybody is able to fix this issue (and
others) without rewriting it all. If only I had more time...

Title:
  Thunderbird incorrectly shows some Gmail archived messages as unread
  via IMAP

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Wait for a few messages to arrive in Inbox, thus being marked as unread.
  2) Mark all of them as read, then archive them.
  3) Click on All Mail folder.

  Actual Results:
  Only one of recently archived messages is marked as read (usually the newest one), the rest must be marked as read again.

  Expected Results:
  All of recently marked as read in Inbox and archived mails should be marked as read in All Mail folder, too.
