This was mentioned (by me) in the "New mail notification
problems" thread which started on Aug 18.  It seems to be normal
behavior -- no one has responded to say that they do not see this
behavior.  (Anyone?)

I think you should be able to go to the mailbox browser screen
and wait for new mail to arrive without worrying that the "N"
indicator won't work for the mailbox you were in before you came
there.

Maybe we're missing something.  Anybody know anything about this?
