    Hi, I recently set up a new email account in Outlook, when a new message comes in it initially will be bold as an unread message, after a minute or two it will automatically change to read (the bold goes away) regardless if I open it or not....any ideas.

    Thanks

    Welcome to WindowsBBS;)

    Do you have the "reading pane" enabled?

    If so->Tools->Options->OTHER tab->Reading Pane button. UNcheck the first box.

    Thanks Steve, the first box is unchecked (for timing), the other two are checked

    You'll need to un-check Mark item as read when selection changes.
