I believe the code updating the "checkbox" flags on mail is parsed after - rather than before - a page is displayed, leading to checkmarks left as artifacts. A demo: * Check off the 2nd item in a list of mail messages * Click delete * Back up one page in the browser (this will show the pre-delete list, with the 2nd item checked) * Click the browser's refresh * Now the updated list - with that item removed - is displayed, but the 2nd item is still checked * Click that (new) 2nd item's checkbox. The box briefly flashes, but stays checked - looks like its value was set to "off" after the page refreshed and, thus, after it had been drawn as checked. Not a terribly urgent bug - worst that could happen would be that a message was inadvertently moved to the wrong folder or deleted, both of which mistakes are easily recovered from.
