My preferences are set to mark messages read after 20 seconds. In
every other mail program I've used, this setting applies only to the
preview pane (Message View). However, when message view is off, and I
double-click to open a message for viewing in a new window, the
message is not marked read for 20 seconds. I can actually open a
short email in a new window, read it, close it, and still have to
mark it read manually. I'd prefer to have messages marked read as
soon as I explicitly open them.
There are lots of opinions on this subject:

No doubt, but in the ticket above, there is only one contrary opinion
other than your own. :) And while I haven't taken a full survey, I'm
sure that the behavior of Mail, Outlook, Entourage, Gmail and Eudora
matches what I describe—and shouldn't these count as opinions of some
weight?
I cannot make the above the default behavior, but I might make it
optional at some point.
Note that you can bind a key to get this behavior, e.g.:
"o" = ( "setTag:", "\\Seen", "openMessages:" );
"\U000A" = ( "setTag:", "\\Seen", "openMessages:" ); // Return
"\U000D" = ( "setTag:", "\\Seen", "openMessages:" ); // Enter
But you cannot override the double-click behavior.
Thank you for the workaround. I'll set that and train myself to use a
keybinding instead of my mouse in MailMate.
