For a long time I could click one time on any of my emails to set them to show being read on my desktop, now I can't. I have a laptop and and desktop, both with Thunderbird, same Rev level, both with WIN 10. The laptop allows me to just click on an unread email to set it as being read which is great as many emails I know the contents and just want to save the email for later reference. A while back my desktop started making me double click and open up the mail just to show being read.. That is fine if I want to read the email but a waste of time having to open it up every email just to set to read. Tons of emails from Amazon in particular but many others I just want to keep on file but not have to open up just to make it show as read read. I know you can go and make them to show read but that is as much or more trouble that just opening them up. Having the one click to show being read was a super time saver. I have checked all the settings and I can't find any difference in the setup between the two. Anyone have any clues on this so I can make my desktop work like the single click laptop.. Regards, Mike

In Table View, enable the Read status column, then click the dot icon in that column to toggle the status. For Table or Cards view, the M key serves the same purpose.

Thanks that does work. Curious why on the laptop I can just click the email post once to show read but on desktop have to click the dot icon as both same TB revision. Anyway it works. Regards.

re : Desktop If you have the 'Message Pane' enabled then a single on email in list will open email in Message Pane and set email as read providing you have settings to auto mark as read.

  • Settings > General
  • Scroll to 'Reading & Display'
  • Select 'Automatically mark messages as read'
  • Select 'Immediately on display'

If email opens in Message Pane then you not need to close it as a separate task as selecting another email will auto close the first and open the newly selected email.
