I’m sorry, but I don’t understand.

I assume you mean the Unread list reachable from the home page, with the key sequence `G U`. But for me, that list only ever shows topics with new posts since I’ve visited them.  
That is why I put the “even if” in my previous post into emphasis. When I do `Shift + U` on a topic, which throws me somewhat abruptly back to the home page (I thought this was a bug but now I understand it is by design), firstly the Unread button isn’t shown unless there have been other topic qualifying as such, and secondly even if I try `G U` anyway, I get a page saying there are no unread posts.
