After lots of others attempts to solve this, I fixed the INBOX article
count problem by recreating the account;

1) duplicate the server in the *Server* buffer (giving a different name)

2) adapt various settings in gnus.el, to use this new server

3) subscribe to all mailfolders (like for the other server)

4) close the other server
