If the Subject lines are that clearly worded you can use View > Arrange By > "Show in Groups" and then click the "Subject" column header and [+]/[-] collapse the views of e-mails grouped by Subject. Has this been tried already?
Also, using the (envelope) "Mail" view versus the (folder icon) "Folder List" view will allow you to have the 'Favorite Folders' in the upper-left corner of the main window and see an "Unread mail" count. Favorites Folders could include a count of unread mails by subfolder names if, for example, a few were created and some rules setup to sort the incoming e-mails into them by Subject line.
I use this method to track incoming & sorted messages using Favorite Folder view. Add folders created below "Mailbox - (lastname, firstname)" via use of a right-click on the new folder(s).
If this is not quite what you wanted, I have some thoughts on other approaches, but will leave with this first built-in features approach before purposing any additional alternatives.
