What I tend to do is have my Mail directory be only unread mail.  After I
read the mail (or just glance over the subjects), I move it to a read
subdirectory.  

Periodically I archive the read directory to a different archive.

My gut feeling is that elm treats non-Inbox mail as read by default.

Matt
