Outlook 2016 - Can “mark as read” be completely disabled?












0















I already have turned off automatic "Mark as read" by following the instructions at Do not automatically mark as read



Is there a way to completely disable any and all automatic "Mark as read", even if you double click the message to open it?

          As far as I know, this is not realizable in Outlook to completely disable "Mark as read" even when you double click to open the email.
          Why you want to keep messages unread?

          • My colleague go trough his list of emails and decide then which email need to be answered first. But in the end he lose track of what he allready had done.

          • If a message was replied, we may see a message in the Infobar: "You replied to this message on..." In my opinion, he can also add flags to emails that he haven't replied as a workaround.
