When message is selcted in preview plane it is marked as read right away. Instead there should be an option that message is marked as read after x seconds of viewing (x=0 is current behavior). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to reproduce: 1. Open mail and turn on the preview pane. 2. Select a message. 3. Quickly select another message. Actual result: First message is marked as read. Expected result: First message is not immediately marked as read; UI presumes that the first message was selected by accident. For example, Microsoft Outlook Express implements the expected behavior. I'll expand the summary to cover what you want, to catch people searching on |preview|.
Summary: Read delay → Delay between opening message in preview pane and marking it as read
