Unread mail is simply a filtered view of your inbox, change your View
settings to eg all mail if thats what you want

The Unread Items folder is NOT a collection of e-mails. It is a search
folder; i.e., it shows the results of the search criteria for that
folder. The actual items listed in the search folder are in some other
folder.

If the search folder is showing selected items from the Inbox folder
then those items must be in the Inbox folder. That you don't see them
in the Inbox folder means you have a view applied to that folder which
will hide some items there. So check what view you have selected on the
Inbox folder.
