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.
