No, it's open, I could read the marked email by what I guess > that it is the "preview pane", but ... The preview pane can be open or closed according to what you want. Use Ctrl-M or View->Preview->Show Message Preview to open or close it. If it' s closed, the selected message is not being displayed. If it's open, it *is* being displayed, meaning that in Evo' s view, it is being read. You can also open it by for example double-clicking on it, which will give you a separate window, but as far as Evo is concerned that's semantically exactly the same thing, just that you can be looking at more than one message at once. > > 2) You select an unread message but don't open it. > > ... correct I don't open the mail, IOW I don't open a new window for > this email, but it's marked. > But if the preview pane is open, you *are* in fact opening it. > > > 3) You select File->Empty Trash > > Exactly what I do. > > > 4) The selected message is marked as read. > > Yes, first step is that trash is emptied and when this is done the > selected massage will be marked as read. > Presumably because it has been selected for more than your timeout. I don't think this has anything to do with emptying the Trash. As an experiment, try setting the timeout period to be longer (say 60 seconds) and repeat the above sequence to see if the "bug" is still present. Then do the same thing with your usual timeout but keeping the preview pane closed. poc
