All messages in new/, and all messages not marked as Seen in cur/, will count towards the group's Unread count. If this isn't working yet, it's likely that there is something else strange going on with your config. As per the Maildir standard, MTAs/MDAs which are compatible with the Maildir format deliver to new/, and when flags (for example "Seen") are appended, the mail is moved from new/ to cur/ with the filename altered appropriately, e.g. ~/Mail/Inbox/new/[some-maildir-id] becomes ~/Mail/Inbox/cur/[some-maildir-id];S when marked Seen by Gnus.
