Siew, I am using MS Outlook 2010 but understand 2007 and 2010 are close. In the File Menu, I have found a setting that may work. I have picked Options. The Options opens with General and I then move to mail, the first arrow to the right. Now you have to tab until you find "Reading Pane", again this is what I find in MS Outlook 2010. Hitting enter, you find options of "Mark items as read when viewing in the Reading Pane, Mark items as read when selection changes and Read with single key of space bar. To have my mail only show of being read when I open the message, I have unchecked each of these items and then hit the "Okay" button for the Read Pane and then also hit the Okay for the Mail Category. I hope this is close to what you find in Outlook 2007..

Are there any settings I can change so that the status will be changed only when I open up the mail to read? I'm using a 64-bit Windows 7 running JAWS 13. I'm getting my mails through IMAP and it's Outlook 2007. Thank you for any help.
