IMAP E-mails Automatically Marked As Read?

[danny michel]

outlook is somehow automatically marking all my emails as read via imap for my host's emails. i've tested it. i send myself a bunch of emails and it takes about a second and a half for outlook to automatically mark them all as read at once, no matter what the subject is or what the email's contents are or where the emails are coming from. this only happens in outlook and nowhere else i check my host's email via imap. this is a fresh outlook install with no rules set or anything..

Disable syncing the account with the smartphone and see if the problem is
solved - I'm sure it will be as every case I've seen like yours was caused
by the sync process marking them read.
