Hello: In Mail.app (Mac OS X Panther), is there a way to make Mail *not* mark messages as read when they are viewed in the preview pane? I really like using the preview pane, but every mail program I've used in the past always included an option to "mark messages as read after XX seconds", which can be disabled. I know there is nothing about this in the Mail Preferences window, but I was wondering if anybody knew of a "hidden" preference that could be added to the com.apple.mail.plist file, such as "DoNotMarkAsReadAutomatically". I've experimented with a few obvious keys with no results. :( In any case, reading around, I've found a few of these hidden preferences that people have "discovered". Does anybody know if there is a list posted somewhere containing all of them, maybe even by Apple? I know that even Qualcomm used to post its own advanced INI settings for Eudora on their web page... Thanks in advance! dZ. -- "Bastard Operators don't just win. Anyone can win. Bastard Operators win and totally demoralise. That's real winning." -- BOfH
