Mail Badge on Mac Book Pro

Mail version 14.0 (3654.120.0.1.13). Computer version 11.6 I have a red badge, with varying numbers within, but no unread mail on any of my mailboxes. Had this problem with earlier version and determined it was caused by unread RSS messages. Not the case this time. Numbers seem to vary with no input by me. Like the read time is expiring. How can I stop this? Does not transfer to iPhone or iPad.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
