If I invoke Mail Dispatcher to see all messages on the server and try to
view a message nothing happens unless I check the message to be
received.

Is this "normal" behavior? I can understand the logic behind this
behavior, but is there a UI reason behind it? This behavior seems very
awkward/inefficient for reading mail on the server remotely.

Why the extra step?

I understand that new messages will automatically be checked to Receive,
but if I have a machine at work that is frequently downloading mail but
leaving a copy on the server, that message is marked Read, so the
Receive box is unchecked when checking through Dispatcher.

Note that I'm not asking for messages to all be marked Received - that
would defeat the purpose of using Dispatcher and Selective Download.

I'm just wondering why I can't select a message in Dispatcher, hit Enter
and view that message, regardless of flags set for that message.
