Does sup track read/unread for individual mails? For example, I open a
thread with 3 mails and read them all. The thread drops from my inbox.

A few hours later I find the thread back in my inbox and open it again,
it now has 6 mails. How do I know which 3 are the new ones? Only the
last one is opened by default, but how do I tell which others I still
need to read?

Is there a way to have unread mails unfolded by default?

After pressing 'a' right?

You probably got this answered on #sup to some degree.

You see the 'N' next to the thread: http://pasteboard.co/1AgBZ9tx.png

Weird, on my sup I have all new mails unfolded by default, and the focus
is on the first one that is unfolded (either because it's unread or
starred). That state is kept separately for each message indeed, so in
your scenario it behaves as you expect. What version are you running ?

You can see which message is unread with the 'N' on each message's top
line.

Sorry for the noise, I caused this problem myself: I use some mail
filtering using procmail to set the 'X-Mark-As-Read: yes' flag for bulk
mail (mailing lists etc) so these do not trigger my you-have-new-mail
bells and whistles. I was kind of confused about the difference between
'new' and 'unread' mail, thus messing up sup's behaviour.
