Vista - Junk marked as read when I hit the Not junk mail button

Junk marked as read when I hit the Not junk mail button

When I scan my junk folder, there are sometimes messages that I'm not sure
about. These I delete, whereupon they get moved to the Deleted items folder.
The Junk-email unread message count goes down and the Deleted items unread
count goes up. I can then locate them quickly in that folder and deal with
as appropriate.

If I recognize a message in the junk folder as not junk and hit the Not junk
mail button, it moves to its proper folder, but it is simultaneously marked
as read. This means I can't see at a glance where it landed. Can anyone
confirm that this happens? If the Not junk mail action always marks the
message as read, it's a bug. If it doesn't always do it, what is the
criterion for doing it?

Yes, I can confirm! And I agree that it is a bug.

Usually the not-junk message goes into the Inbox for that Account. But
since it's marked Read, it's not easy to find there - and it does not show
up in Quick views | Unread e-mail. And if one or more mail rules apply, who
knows where it might go. :>(

Re: Junk marked as read when I hit the Not junk mail button

Noel,
Ditto...same here..
Having returned from vacation and not having accessed email for any length
of time I had plenty of junk mail messages to duplicate the same issue.
Feedback also sent.

Fyi
- If I hit the not Junk mail option(or use the context menu), it always goes
to that same account's inbox.
- in my feedback I also noted that dragging another unread message from the
Junk-email folder to the another folder in the same or different account
retains its unread status.

Re: Junk marked as read when I hit the Not junk mail button

Do you mind???? It's 7º F/-13.89º C here in Chicago and you have to rub it
in. LOL Just kidding. I'm just jealous, that's all. Welcome back and may
you have many more happy, sunny vacations.

Re: Junk marked as read when I hit the Not junk mail button

My goodness, that must have been quite a shock. Of course it's -3º now here
in Chicago, without the wind chill. But the sun is shining and from the
inside out, it looks like a nice day. LOL
