Don't worry..this bug was filled years before the introduction of the virtual
folders and as it seems I'm the only one who would like to be able to have a
default filter which is sticky.. To worsen the problem other applications
(aggregator f.e.) have the same problem pointing to kmail as "standard
behaviour". Anyhow, since I seem to be the only one who likes to see only the
threads with new mails (new mails + context) per default I don't think you
have to worry.

Virtual folders are a pain in the butt for this. It means that I would need a
second folder for every folder I already have, if I remember correctly they
didn't update themself automatically and didn't show threads. Just hits..
Anyhow, the status filter is perfect and does the job adequately.. If only it
would be sticky to the last used setting freeing me from the "select
folder" -> "change status" -> "read mail" drag..
