Basically what you want is that your rules only apply to read mails.

So you could add this to the rules manually
(Criteria->Flag->unread->not set) which could be painful depending on
your ruleset. I would use some hacky script like 
$ cat .claws-mail/matcherrc|perl -e \
  "while(<STDIN>){s/move/~unread move/;print}"

Of course it is wise to check if this should really apply to all your
rules before. If you like your output, put it into .claws-mail/matcherrc

Without checking, just do
  sed -i.bck "s/move/~unread move/" .claws-mail/matcherrc

Note: claws creates backups of the filters in matcherrc.bak. Yours
will be in matcherrc.bck then.
