Mail - deleting unread email marks it as read

Dear community,
When deleting an UNREAD email in Mail (I'm running 6.6 (1510) on OS X 10.8.5) it gets moved to trash and marked as READ. That doesn't seem quite right to me. Anyone experiencing the same issue? Known bug? Any solution?
Thanks.

What does make you  believe it is normal?
Firstly, it wasn NOT like this in the past was it?
Secondly, I sometimes need to know exactly what messages went to trash without been read.
Thirdy, I human being would rather decice myself (read - configuration option!) what gets marked as read and what doesn't and when.
Any idea how to stop Mail forcefully marking trashed messages as read?

  • In OS 10.8.4 is there a way to delete unread emails as a batch?

    I have a lot of unread emails. In OS 10.8.4 is there a way to delete unread emails as a batch?

    If you sort them by their read/unread status by clicking that column header, they will be grouped together in the mailbox list, making it easier to select them together.
    You could also create a Smart Mailbox with the criteria set to Message Is Unread, resulting in a Smart Mailbox that only contains unread messages. Then you just Select All and Delete.

  • Mail shows 3 unread emails but i've read them on my android phone phone and they are marked as read on GMAIL.

    Hello, I know that Mail in Mavericks has a lot of problems, but i still haven't read about this one. I returned home and saw 3 unread emails, when opened, i've noticed that i've already read them earlier today using Gmail on my android phone. So i opened Gmail webmail and they were marked there as read as well. Even after checking for new mail manually, they were unread in my Mail.app. I had to open these emails to mark them as read.
    Have anyone of you experienced the same behavior?

    Found my solution:
    Try this... "you could create a smart mailbox to filter unread emails, go to mail menu, mailbox>create smart mailbox, and choose the unread email rule. then look in the smart mailbox to see which emails show up."

  • Unread emails marked as read

    I'm using OS10.7.5 and Mail 5.3. I have several email accounts and all of them but one behave properly. The account in question shows all of my emails as being read but that's not the case. I've had this problem before but I can't remember how I solved the problem. Any ideas? Thanks for your time.

    I rebuilt it several days ago and no change. I watched what happens and when an email comes in it shows unread and then changes to read immediately. Today, for some reason, the emails started coming in as unread and staying that way. I didn't change anything. ?????

  • Unread emails marked as read without being opened

    On my Ipad 2, unread emails are marked as read without being opened. This happens when I open the email from my laptop after using the ipad. There are four email accounts on the ipad and they are all experiencing this. Any idea what is going on?

  • Mail icon shows 3 unread emails but I've read them all

    Can not seem to get rid of 3 unopened emails on mail icon. I checked all accounts and mailboxes?

    you could create a smart mailbox to filter unread emails, go to mail menu, mailbox>create smart mailbox, and choose the unread email rule. then look in the smart mailbox to see which emails show up.
    you can also select the option you would like for dock unread count, go to mail>preferences>general.
    hope this helps

  • Email mark all as read feature in OS5..?

    Very annoying to have to open each and every email to show marked as read. Thought for sure a "mark all as read" feature would be in OS5, but doesn't appear so at first glance. Any answers?

    Go into Mail, tap Edit, then mark the messages you want, tap Mark on the bottom and tap Mark as Read.
    The same can be done to mark messages as unread.
    However, when having around 200 unread messages (could be 500 as well), a “mark all as read” option would not be too much asking.

  • Mail Icon Unread email Count

    I just got the iphone 4s.  (i had the 3gs and had to go to droid due to family plan on sprint.)  Anyhow i am back on iphone and i was hoping someone can remind me how to remove the unread email number count on the Mail icon.  I believe there was a setting etc which allowed me to remove this.  You input is appreciated.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Groupwise client is reporting 1 unread email when all are read

    Hi Folks,
    I have a rather strange problem that I'm hoping to find a solution to. I
    have one user who's client is reporting that there is an unread email in
    her inbox when all have been read. In fact, she has either deleted or
    moved all mail out of her inbox to either a cabinet directory or an
    archive. I had her log in at another workstation and the issue followed
    her. I have run both an analyze/fix with all the options checked, and a
    structural rebuild on her user database, and found no problems.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Do an "Advanced Find" with filter options "Item Status" "does not include"
    "Read".
    Now you should see any unread Item. If it's only one Item, it must be this
    one you see in the Home View. Just delete it or move it to another Folder.

    It's actually showing in the inbox, and it's always off by one when there

    tonight, the inbox had 11 unread emails, but the number said 12.

  • Apple mail Notification - Unread email notification to show on the top?

    Does anyone know if I can have the unread email notification for Apple mail show on the top menu bar, perhaps amongst the icons like battery indicator, airport ect.? I have my dock setting to hide and I would like to see how many messages I have unread w/o having to pull up the dock. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Mail Unread Menu ➚ does this, but the reviews ➚ on MacUpdate seem to imply some instability.

  • Unread emails originally appear as read

    My Q10 is set up to read 3 email accounts.  All three suffer the same problem, emails show up as having already been read - there is no distinction between before reading them for the first time on my Q10 and after reading them.  All three of these accounts are read on other laptop/desktops and in one case also read on 2 other handheld devices.  I have found great benefit in the unread/read indicator on previous Bberry devices and would love it if it would work on this device.
    For another issue, I have recently done a Blackberry HUB reset (5 pulls top right to center), a soft reboot (reset selected after pushing on/off button on top edge), and a battery pull for 1 minute (from a power on condition): all had no effect on the issue.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Have the same issue. Can't figure if there is a rule why and when emails go as "read".
    Something to configure with the account settings ?
    The HUB settings ?
    or by my email service provider ?

  • Is there a way to view my mail by unread emails?

    Is there a way to search my email by unread emails ?

    Yes. In the Mailboxes list, tap Edit. You will find an option for "Unread". Tap it to select it, then tap Done. This will give you a view of unread emails accros all of your accounts. There are also a few other options you might find useful, particularly if you are using IMAP accounts with a multiple folders.

  • Unread Email in gmail cannot read unless clicking on reply or forward, empty page.

    When you click on the unread email there's ONLY an empty box with reply or forward, no email body.

    ''GMail entire message content missing (blank) after header title''
    In Firefox, if you have "Adblock Plus" extension.
    # "Ctrl+Shift+F" Preferences (or right click on ADP symbol, and choose preferences)
    # 'Filters' menu > "'''Update all subscriptions'''"

  • Iphone 4 deletes exchange emails if they are read on desktop

    My iphone 4 is receiving my exchange emails but as soon as I read the emails on my desktop computer, my phone deletes them.  I do not have Outlook set to view "unread" messages only.  It is set to read all messages.  It was working fine last week until we switched to a new Exchange server.  Three other people in our office have the same iphone 4 and their exchange accounts are working fine.  Same thing happens on my ipad so it has to be an outlook setting somewhere.  Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    I would 1st speak to your corporate IT department maybe there is a setting within outlook that needs to be set, as far as you iPhone I would go into setting>Mail> tap the account in question>advanced there is a delete from server setting there you may want to disable.
    Good Luck!
