Personally, I would expect it to be 1, but it isn't. It is 0.

I've completed the work to update Postfix and Dovecot to use LMTP and
the test message is now being delivered with UNSEEN=1, so thank you for the
suggestions and comments provided.

This is because you are not using dovecot-lda / lmtp for delivery. Either use
those, or set mailbox_list_index=no.

Status uses list index, when available, to optimize status lookups.
