Selecting two columns with diffrent WHERE clause

Hello,

I have to write an private message module, so I create this MySQL schema

id, uid ( who write the message ), subject, message, read ( is read or not ), date

So! I want to display how many are all the messages and how many are unread messages. Is there any way to do that with a single MySQL query?

Thank you!
Marush Denchev

Code:
select count(*) as all_messages
     , count(case when read='n' 
                  then 937 end) as unread_messages
  from daTable
