Gnus will now sync the flag state for all messages from the IMAP server,
so if the server says the message is unread, Gnus will, too.

However, there may be a bug somewhere in the code, of course.

Try `M-g' on the group, and then look in the *nnimap <server name> ...*
buffer, and find the line for an article you thing should have been
marked as read, and then see what the server says about the article.
(Gnus "article numbers" is the same as IMAP UIDs.)
