Sent mail unread in Sent folder when sent from Android

Hi,

I have my work IMAP account set up in the Android e-mail application. It works fine, but every mail I send from the phone shows up as unread in the Sent folder, so when I access the account with other e-mail applications I have all these unread messages in the Sent folder. I have never had any e-mail applications mark Sent mail unread. Is there a way to prevent the Android mail client from marking sent unread?

Answering my own post: I downloaded K-9 Mail which doesn't have this problem, so I'm good for now. K-9 is kicking e-mail on Android up a notch, a big notch as far as I'm concerned. However, if anyone know how to resolve this in the built in e-mail client I would really like to know what's wrong.
