mark as read

[G K]

Hello,

When I open an e-mail for reading, Outlook 2003 marks it as read by default.
Is there any way to control it ? I would like to leave the mail as unread
even if I open it. I want to mark it as read only after I read and process
it.

Regards,
GK

I don't think there's a way to stop Outlook from marking a message read if
you open it. You can, however, prevent marking it as read if you stick to
the Reading Pane.
