Auto-change from "Unread" to "Read"

Auto-change from "Unread" to "Read"

There has to be a setting to change the fact that when a message is displayed, the software automatically

switches the message from bold "unread" to non-bold "read" status.

In Outlook, there's a setting to give the reader a minute (or two) before the message is marked as "read".

I'm constantly having to mark "read" messages are "unread".....doing this daily!

Please give me some guidance on this.

I can't be the only one that has a problem with it.

Thanks!
