MS: just give thus the option to turn-off single-click!

Single click still opens a new email window instead of just in the reading pane. I've been trying to change this for months. None of the "fixes" listed in this thread are correct. Microsoft - there has to be an easy fix for this.

*Insert heavily worded complaint with expletives*

How is this not fixed yet? Once again, I return to the previous version. Thanks for making me feel old and out of touch. Now get off my lawn! :P

Thank you, Kara, for your guidance. Unfortunately, the "Mark items as read when viewed in the Reading Pane" option was already checked, and the "Mark item as read when selection changes" option was already unchecked. However, the single-click issue persists. What should be done next? I am currently using O365.
