Unread emails self marking as read...

Hi,
I had all my unread email this morning in one of my IMAP accounts showing up as read before I had clicked on them.
I also have new notes randomly opening then showing up as an unread email/note with a blue dot at the left.
Any ideas? TIA

Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
Note: /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index does not exist in 10.5 & up.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup

  • Unread emails being marked as read

    I have noticed a strange occurrence on mu ipad mini which I haven't seen before.
    My emails are set to download manually and not be pushed.
    When I go into my account and download any emails they download fine and are marked unread. If I were to switch come out of the email program without reading any and go back in they are sitting there still unread. All good so far. If however I were to pull the column down to refresh (to see if there are any other email) and there is another mail/mails, the emails are downloaded and all the other unread mails unread markers disappear as if they are read.

    Hey kabsl,
    Thanks for the post.
    What type of email account is attached to your BlackBerry Z10? (POP3, IMAP, Exchange).  Also have you tried removing and re-adding the email account to test?
    Is this email account only setup on one computer or several computer?
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.

  • Emails being marked as read on Z10

    I have a major issue on my blackberry Z10. emails are marked as read even though i have not read them.
    I have seen another post where users have an issue with mails being downloaded on Outlook. I thought my issue was similar and hence spent an entire day without launching outlook. nevertheless emails continue to be marked as read.
    if i have received 10 emails, i go into 1 to read it, but when i come back into the hub, the other 9 emails are marked as read as well.
    however, once i re-mark the emails as unread they stay marked unread. but this has to be done manually.
    nonetheless, this is a very frustrating process for someone who uses unread emails as a tool to follow-up on tasks.
    BTW: i am using version 10.0.10.82 now and have regularly updated the OS, but faced the same issue for 3 months.

  • 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."

  • Why are my emails being marked as read automatically?

    I recently changed from iPhone 4 to 5; I never experienced any email issues with the iphone4. Now my emails on iphone5 ;same account etc) are sometimes marked as read before I view them. This happens every night over night without fail, and invariable happens during the day too (although not always- I can't yet see any pattern in this). It's extremely frustrating as I could rely on looking at my lock screen on iphone4 to see my recent unread emails; and I now cannot rely on this (and there's normally nothing there as its all marked as read in my inbox, before I've seen it! Then I have to check through each message to make sure I haven't missed something).
    There are no other devices running to access this inbox; it is set up on my home laptop through outlook (as it was with iphone4); but this is only switched on about once a week just to download the messages.
    Please does anyone have a solution to this very frustrating issue? I did not expect that by upgrading I would be worse off!

  • All incoming emails being marked as 'read' on my Droid x

    All incoming emails to my pop3 or imap accounts are being automatically marked as 'Read'.
    Any fix for this issue?
    If I have outlook open, which is running exchange client  Outlook 2007, and my Droid is running imap or pop3, messages being delivered are being displayed as READ.
    I have tried closing outlook, and then downloading emails to my droid without reading any of the 80 unread emails - then turning off my Droid....Followed by opening Outlook, but the messages show up in outlook as being READ.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Have you installed any apps that auto display the emails when they come in? If so the auto read feature may be triggering this, I had a app at one time that showed my emails in the preview window and it made the emails be listed as read... I would check your apps and make sure you are not using something like this unknowingly.

  • Imap email incorrectly marked as read before I open them.

    HI,
    My email is set up as imap on my MacBookPro. I noticed when I opened by mail yesterday that it showed I only had 1 unread email - which is greatly incorrect. Tonight when I opened mail, my new messages for today suddenly changed to read all at once, before I had opened them. I have gone through my mail preferences and can't find anything to explain it, and I had not changed anything, that I can think of. I have set up no filters or rules. I am in classic view.
    The POP account on my Mac Mini is fine.
    Thanks, I would appreciate any help.

    Who is hosting the email server?
    Is this through your work? 
    Are you hosting your own email server?
    Have you ever downloaded from this email server on another mobile device?
    If this is an IMAP email, and if the email is being checked at another location by anyone then it would be marked as read. This could also be a setting issue on the email server itself.

  • Email messages marked as READ on my Exchange server

    Hi,
    My email account is retrieving my messages from my work's exchange server. When I read them on my BB they are marked as read on the server. I have missed metings and deadlines. I would like to enable that my messages on the server remain unread even if I view them on my BB. How do I do that?
    Thanks.

  • Why are all emails automatically marked as read?

    I recently switched my wifes email account from a POP to a IMAP.  (same email address, same server, same provider)
    Shortly before doing that we upgraded to Lion.
    She also gets mail from this account on her iPhone.
    Question:  For some reason all of her new emails are automatically marked as read. No blue dots.  This happens when a new message is recieved on either the Mac or on the iPhone.  Everything else about the email account works properly. My email accounts on the same Mac work properly. (Same user account)
    Any ideas what might be causing this? Is this problem being caused in the Mail problem or is it something on the server side?
    Thanks.

    UPDATE:
    I have now deleted the account from the iphone. No change in the behavior.  It's not the iphone that is causing this.
    When an email is recieved it stays unread for about 20 minutes. And then it mysteriously changes all by itself to read.  I have logged into the Webmail panel for this account and the behavior is mirrored there.
    please help !!

  • 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 ?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Received emails being marked as read when they are unread!

    Since downloading the ios7 update on my iphone 5s I have had an issue with my emails. I have two accounts (both yahoo) linked my phone which I use for business. Therefore receiving emails is of the utmost importance. Basically what happens is this. I will receive a tone to say I have an incoming email. When I look at the home screen it may show as an example that I have 2. However, when I click into the email icon on the home screen to read the incoming mail it shows many more received earlier that I was notified if and they are shown as read. I spoke to apple about this several weeks ago and they advised me to reset my phone, which I did. It fixed the problem but now several weeks later it has come back. Can anyone help as apple have no clue as to how this happening. It is getting to the point where I am losing business as clients email me to say they sent a mail several days previously which clearly I have missed. I don't have this problem with my ipad - the emails are working perfect on that.

    Sounds like you both have the same messed up add on. Try restarting Thunderbird with the add ons disabled and see if things go back to normal.
    You can do this from the Help Menu.

  • 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?

    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. ?????
