Starting this week, some emails (all of them are sent from internal domain) in Outlook shows yellow envelope icon. Opening and reading this email does not make this icon disappear. The only way to get rid of if it is to reply to the email, then the envelope is replaced with arrow.

Is this some new feature, bug or something is wrong iwth our Exchange server?

This is how it looks like in Outlook:

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For home

    Do we have any update on this issue? (Yellow Envelope) It seems there is no update from Microsoft.
