In the upcoming version 0.4-beta (will be released later today) there are config options available for all what you're requesting here. Even with 0.3 you can choose whether to have a preview pane and we just added an option where one can specify whether messages viewed in the preview pane are automatically marked as read and after how many seconds this should happen. > > b) Security/Anti-Spam: What if the next/previous e-mail is a spam e-mail > or worse contains a virus?

There's another option (in section "Displaying Messages") where one can set whether the next message in row should be opened when moving or deleting the current message. This option applies in both the preview pane and the full message view mode. > > c) Overview: Now this one is more a personal question.

I think there's no need to change any behavior of Roundcube since all these different use cases are already covered. All you need to do is choosing the right settings.
