I have a problem with convert to read. As soon as I click to highlight a mail piece it changes to "read Past tense" I've not been able to find a setting to change this I recall there used to be a setting "set to read after ____ seconds" There seems to be no mention of this in Help. Thanks

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool: Invalid Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution This may be a bit difficult to explain... In Evolution, I currently have it configured to mark a new message as read 0.5 seconds after I open the message. So, for example, I open my inbox folder and there are 50 messages total and 5 marked Unread. I click on one of the 5 Unread messages and open it. Evolution then marks that message as read about 0.5 seconds after I open the message and start reading it. When I open a folder, evolution opens up a message automatically. IN some cases, this is the last message read, in some cases, it's the first unread message. The bug exists when the second case is met. When I open a folder and evolution automatically opens an Unread message, that unread message is NOT automatically marked read. Instead, I have to open a different message and then return to that message to have it marked Read. This becomes an even bigger issue when I open a folder that contains exactly ONE message. if I purge the contents of a folder, then get a new message in that folder, I have to use contextual menus to mark the message read, as there is NO way to have it handled by evolution in a automatic method. For example, please look at the screenshot I have attached. You'll see my folder for mail from the Laptop Testing Team mailing list at ubuntu.com. I recently purged that folder of all old messages. Then I recieved a new message from that list which was filtered into the folder for Laptop Testing Team. When I open that folder, the message is opened, however, it is NOT marked as read. Since there is nothing else in that folder, I can't use the workaround of clicking on a different message then clicking back on that message. Thus, the only way to mark the folder as read is to now use context menus on the folder itself.
