Thanks Ronni. I've worked that one out as mentioned (see last sentence of my 2nd last paragraph), but I was wondering if there was any way of leaving the message as Unread if only having seen in the preview pane, ie. without having to manually change it back to Unread.

Cheers, Steven

I'm new to Apple Mail, ex Entourage user. Using latest version of Mail app and Leopard.

In Entourage, I used the Preview panel for a preliminary look at incoming emails. The choice existed to leave an email with Unread status, despite having previewed it in the preview panel.

In Mail, I have the preview panel operational (if that's what it's called?), but I can't seem to figure a way to leave an email as Unread. Each time I click on the email, and the contents of it show in the preview panel, it automatically changes the email to Read status (ie. blue dot disappears and unbolded). I can manually change the status of the email to Unread, but I don't want to have to do this.

Is there a way of leaving emails in Unread status, despite having them display in the preview pane?

Hi Steven,

Go to 'Message' in Menu bar, scroll down to 'Mark' - 'As Unread'.

I prefer to just click 'flag' messages I need to attend to later.

Cheers,
Ronni
