Hello, The setting for Reading and Viewing. Automatically mark message as read. The message comes in bold and changes to non-bold as read after a while, even if it is marked in tool settings that it should not be marked as read. Attach photos. That was not the case in the previous version. Has it changed .......

I'm not aware of such a change, because that setting applies as expected in my case. Try turning it ON then change the duration to longer than 5 seconds. Try 360s (1 hour).

Hello Stan, Thanks for the reply. The setting for Reading and Viewing. Automatically mark message as read........ I changed to 1 hour but after 15-20 minutes your email had been marked as read, without me having opened it.

Maybe I should reinstall the whole Thunderbird? I have saved my emails in some of my own folders, do you know if I have to create these again during a reinstallation?

Hasse

Reinstallation won't help because those settings are stored in your profile. Open Config Editor, search for mark_message and post a screenshot of the results.

Hello again, Found Config Editor ..... Attach screenshot. Is this where I can change something.

Hi Stan, When I changed tools to AV and searched for mark_ the result was this......screenshot Could there be something wrong with this.

I don't understand what you mean by that. Kindly explain further.

Hello again, Sorry It was Google Translate .... Has changed in Config Editor according to the attached screenshot and setting in tools. Worked for 25-30 minutes, then the emails were registered as read without being opened. For information, Junk mail comes by setting.

Hasse

As you can see, those three preferences in Config Editor correspond to the three settings in the Options tab. What you set in Options is reflected in Config Editor and vice versa, so this part appears to be working as intended. Do you have any filters that mark messages as read?
