Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to After switching accounts, a delayed read-state update could briefly show an incorrect inbox unread badge for the newly active account. This is a bounded client-side correctness risk, so the PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to bind updates to the active account and add a regression test.

Linked issue: INB-348: Unread Message Count in /mail Inbox Not Updated in Real Time
| Status | Acceptance criteria | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ✅ | Update the Inbox unread count when messages are marked read or unread locally. | The PR calculates unread deltas for affected inbox threads and optimistically applies them to the cached Inbox count. |
| ✅ | Refresh the Inbox unread count when mailbox data changes, including newly arriving messages. | The label-count hook subscribes to mailbox-store changes for the active account and triggers revalidation; focused tests verify the account-specific refresh behavior. |
| ✅ | Refresh the Inbox count from the provider when serving cached label counts, without refetching every label. | Cached responses refresh only the Inbox count using the provider-specific API, while retaining the other cached counts. |

Fixed in 19f405e: Outlook now adjusts the badge per affected inbox message, matching unreadItemCount, while Gmail continues to count unread conversations. The focused test covers multiple unread Outlook messages.

so they capture the active emailAccountId and ignore updates from stale accounts
after an account switch, preventing setReadState from mutating the new account’s
pendingInboxUnread state. Add a regression test covering a callback resumed from
the previous account after switching accounts.

Fixed in 92fabcd: the account-switch test now covers account 1 → account 2 → account 1 and waits for the original account response, proving the pending delta was cleared.

Keep the inbox unread badge synchronized after local read-state changes and mailbox-cache updates. Cached label-count responses now refresh the inbox count without refetching every label.\n\n- Optimistically adjust unread totals and revalidate on mailbox changes.\n- Refresh only the inbox portion of cached provider counts.\n- Cover loading, partial, account-switch, stale-callback, and React commit-phase semantics.\n- Tests: 27 focused Vitest tests; Ultracite check on all changed files.\n\nPerformance: local updates scan visible threads and messages; cached count requests add one provider call, with no new database work and low hot-path risk.\n\nLinear: https://linear.app/inbox-zero-ai/issue/INB-348/unread-message-count-in-mail-inbox-not-updated-in-real-time
