If I click once on an e-mail in the message window while I closed the preview window, I opened that makes e-mail?

If I click once on an e-mail in the message window while I closed the preview window, I opened that makes e-mail? I worry because I don't want to open a message that my bad-ware download on my computer. If the preview window is closed, I noticed that the number of e-mails read does not change when I click once on e-mail. Can I assume that unread means that it has not been opened.

Read the answer! Your question is answered there.

Read / unread is purely an indicator. It has no real meaning. If you go into the menu (alt + T) tools > options > advanced > reading and display, you can change when a mail is marked as read in immediately to 10 seconds (this is what outlook express used) up to 1000 seconds.

The software marked the email read is that this logic can go. It's always "BOLD", the software did not mark the message read.

You open the mail? It is an unquantifiable statement.

In the context of Thunderbird an individual mail is not a discrete element that is stored. It is a part of your data for mail/News. So try to equate open to action just does not fit.

Thunderbird received mail as a series of lines. He collected in an email that he stores in a file with all your other emails for this folder. You open the file in that the mail is stored? Totally irrelevant Thunderbird opens to get mail every time that mail is added to the folder or to view a mail in this folder.

Each time a letter is displayed (any mail) the file all your emails for this folder are saved in the opening and reading.

If clicking on the mail list 'open' the file. Probably not, it was probably already open. The file is opened, read, written to and updated probably half a dozen times since Thunderbird started so if you click on the mail to see won't change anything good at all. If the e-mail file has been closed it will be open to view the contents of the mail, but he is perhaps already open.

The key is that you try to apply assumptions to mail that simply do not apply. That's why I sound as if I'm going in circles.

  • The software mark mail as read when you say
  • It opens files underlying storage constantly. Clicking on an entry may or may not cause the opening of the file.
  • Your mail is not in a file on its own, it is in a file that contains all the messages in the folder and the mail deleted until the folder is compacted.
