Re: mail is opened

With a POP3 account, the only way messages would arrive as Read is if
you had a message rule with that action (Tools, Messages Rules, Mail).

For an IMAP or HTTP account, WLM synchronizes with the mail server. If
a message was previously read via web mail or another mail program, they
will arrive as read in WLM. This could potentially include an anti-spam
program that accesses the messages via IMAP before you download them.

Re: mail is opened

With a http account if you read the email online, then it will download
marked as read.
