Is there a Mail plugin to let me view unread emails first? Similar to Gmail priority inbox, is there a Mail 6.3 (OSX Mountain Lion) plugin that lets me view unread messages first or sort them so they're at top of inbox?
In Mac's mail app you have got the option to create a 'smart mailbox'. This allows you for example to only view unread emails. It can even do that over multiple mailboxes.

If you just want to have the unread messages always on top, there's a sort option for that in the menu between Edit and Mailbox (probably called View).
