Emails Marked As Read When I Open Inbox
As the title says, when I open my Thunderbird to read emails all the new emails are already marked as Read, not highlighted. I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird and it is still not marking new emails in a bold letter, but in normal light text, marked as read.I have given donation to Mozilla and I really can't believe how difficult it was to get to this point in getting some customer service.Please tell me why this is happening.Bewerkt door Wayne Mery op 29 oktober 2016 om 21:44:57 -0700. OK, I solved the problem of my emails being read before I read them.
I had completely forgotten that I had setup my primary email account in email client. I hadn't opened that Outlook email in many months because I usually only go there to see my Hotmail account. For some reason even though I didn't go to to look at my primary email account, it was marking the emails as read in Thunderbird.??I removed the primary account from client and the problem was solved.Thanks for any and all suggestions!0.

Re: I have given donation to MozillaI'm sure that is very much appreciated as they produce Mozilla Firefox with good ethical values. A worthy project indeed.Do you only read emails for that email address in Thunderbird on one computer?For example do you access the email account via more than one computer?Do you access those emails via webmail?Is it a POP or Imap mail account?If you only access that email address via Thunderbird, then the mail should be auto 'unread' on download, but I wonder if there is some setting that could be effecting incoming mail. Thinking out aloud here:) If you have enabled the adaptive junk mail controls, then everything will probably be going through the Junk filter controls, so lets start with that.What setting do you have for Junk in Options?' Menu icon' 'Options' 'Options' 'Security' 'Junk' tabuncheck: 'Mark messages determined to be Junk as read'click on 'OK'.

I only have been reading mail from this email account from my one PC.I know what your saying though because I once had the email account setup to view on my cell, but I didn't like viewing them on my little cell phone so I eliminated the account in there.I did see then that if I read them on a cell it would mark them as Read on my PC, so I guess that isn't the problem.The email account is IMAP. I went to the junk settings as you suggested and looked, the ' Mark messages determined to be Junk as read' was already unchecked.??No clue what happened to cause this, I've been using Thunderbird and this email account for at least 4 or 5 years and this problem just suddenly started. Perhaps its possible that someone has hacked into my email account and is reading all my emails but I have no idea why anyone would want to, there isn't anything special about them.Thanks for trying to help me with this issue.
