    Question About Junk Folder/Mail

    When one looks at the Junk Mail folder for either a POP or otherwise server,
    and does the ongoing Let-Em-In method as follows:

    1. Highlight Junk Mail
    2. [Right-Click] Junk Mail->Add to Safe Senders list
    3. then (on the same message) [Right-Click] Junk Mail->Mark as Not Junk


    , these two commands certainly work, but one other annoying item is that it
    assigns the message or messages highlighted as Read. A look in the folder
    where the [erm] mail rules are supposed to place it shows the message having
    been processed, but marked as Read, thus not highlighted and fairly
    difficult to find unless one remembers where it went...

    If you sort by date, the new message should not be hard to find.

    Especially if I have all my mail in a single Inbox, huh? Bug is bug.
