I know that it has been said that GMail IMAP is not entirely standard, which is why I don't know whether what I see on that screenshot is what should be expected, or not. I agree, though, that for it to show all those unread messages it must have managed at least one correct sync. Of course there is the possibility that it can read the mail but can't write to the directories - which it has to do, presumably, to change any flags or delete messages.
