Maybe this sounds strange but apparently Lotus Notes works this way.

A user has permissions to her bosses email so they can both read it. But
when she reads his email from her PC, she does not want it to be marked as
read on his PC (so her boss knows he hasn't read it). - She doesn't want to
keep changing them to unread from read.

Someone thinks it should not come up as read when she opens its. I'm not
aware of that being possible.

Is it?

Preview pane - too much trouble for her.
Outlook 2003/Exchange 2003

Thanks
Paul

If she opens an item, it will be marked as read. Using the Reading Pane is
the only way that I know to see the message but not have it marked as read.
