inbox e-mail should stay unread until actually opened.

[Guest]

Currently the inbox e-mail changes from unread to read if it is ever
high-lighted with the cursor regardless of whether it is actually opened.
Version is Microsoft Office Outlook 2003.

You can control this since Outlook actually got the Reading/Preview Pane
already (version 98 IIRC);
Tools-> Options-> tab Other-> button Reading Pane

Tools -> Options -> Other -> unselect Mark items as read when viewed
in reading pane.
