I have this same problem but I am not sure it is caused by other mail
readers; in my case, I am getting convinced that it is the gnus agent
that is doing it as this happens in all my folders and yet I use k9 on
Android only to access my inbox.

You can mark a region in your Summary buffer and then C-u C-w
(gnus-summary-mark-region-as-read) to mark all those messages as
expired. The C-u is necessary as otherwise the messages are simply
marked read.
