The CEO of my company has a problem with his Outlook 2003. He says when he
gets new email messages, before he even gets a chance to read them Outlook
marks them as read. He's getting confused because he doesn't know which ones
he's actually read and which ones are new ones that have been marked as read.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Does he have the reading pane on and, if so, does he have the "mark as read"
options properly configured in Tools>Options>Other>Reading Pane?
 
Does he check his work e-mail from home or somewhere else? If so make sure
that the external mail program is closed before he comes to work.
