Steps to reproduce:
Since upgrading from 68 to 78 messages do not become "read" as they should. In 68, when I view a message it is automatically marked as read. This still happens sometimes in 78, but sometimes, I can view the message repeatedly both in the main 3-pane window and in a separate window (double-click message), but it stays "unread". The asterisk that marks it as new also stays in place. I am not sure, but I think it mostly (only?) happens in threads, for messages that are not the thread root.
Also, uncofirmed, it seems to mostly (only?) happen to messages that I have received because I have BCC to myself, i.e. my own outgoing messages that have been BCC:d to my inbox.
Actual results:
Messages that I view stay marked as unread and also as new (if applicable).
Expected results:
Messages that I view should be marked as read (and the "new" mark should be removed), as they did in 68 and older versions.
I am seeing the same issues. Marking "read" is inconsistent and "sticky". Most of the time I have to click on the message in the list and hit "m" to force it. I think a side issue with this is I am also getting alerts to emails that I have read and thought we marked. Apparently they were not marked and the alert can pop us many minutes or even an hour later.
