Outlook - marking items as read
Hi - I completed the intermediate course yesterday and have been putting to use some of the skills I learned. But I recall the trainer mentioning that if you highlight an email and only look at it in the reading pane it becomes 'read'. There was a way I could circumvent this but I cannot find it now and it would be really helpful if someone could point me in the right direction. I also recall something about skipping through emails using the space bar which would be handy. Will this make emails 'read' too? Many thanks, Andy
RE: Outlook - marking items as read
Hello Andy,
If you look in the Office Button (top left), Options (near the bottom of the menu), you will find the Show as Read in the Other section. Reading pane options.
I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.
If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?
Have a great day.

RE: Outlook - marking items as read
Hello Andy,
Sorry missed the version you were on!
Just go to Tools \ Options and then click on the Other tab. Click the Reading Pane button to bring up the options.
Just select the checkbox on “Mark items as read when viewed in the Reading Pane”. You’ll notice that you can’t also select the “Mark item as read when selection changes” box.
I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.
If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?
Have a great day.
