Flagged item count won't clear in Mail

[harrylarry]

In the Mail application, my Flagged mailbox shows 93 flagged items on the badge, but there are no items in the folder. I have used flags occasionally, but never had anywhere near that many items flagged. Now I have NO flagged items, but the badge continues to show 93 items no matter what I do. How can I get that danged badge to go away?

Hi,

This is very odd, my flags work just fine. can you post a screen shot.

At the bottom of the Mailbox Menu, do a Rebuild.

This may take some time...

Tried that, didn't work. But the problem is solved...

Thanks, oldscribe. I actually solved the problem by downloading a mail bundle from Eelco Lempsink on another forum that removes the flagged mailbox altogether. I seldom use mail flags, so I don't really need it.
