I was happily using older version of Outlook on windows but a popup made to switch to latest version (pre) of Outlook or mail not sure what its called now.

I am able to receive and send emails using outlook flawlessly however the issue is these emails are not getting marked as read, temporary its read but very soon again shows as unread. I checked on web Gmail as well it shows as unread. I dont think this could be sync issue because I receive emails on time.

What is going on any idea?

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For business

    Yup. I'm one that switched to Mailbird, and couldn't be happier. It 100% works right out of the box.

    Here we are in 2024 and the bug is still present. The "new Outlook" team is failing across the board. With their business version of Outlook, their flagship email product, there is also a "new Outlook" version that you can install that is also riddled with bugs, missing critical business features, and as such is unusable. They need to immediately disable the prompts for these "new" products so users stop getting pushed into them, and the team for this product needs to be fired so a new team that knows what it's doing can be brought in.

    I have tested and agree with others in this thread, just ditch this and go to Mailbird. Make sure to use the version from their website and not the Windows Store.

    I have not changed any app settings, but I did upgrade to Windows 11. I’m unsure if this started working around the time I switched to Windows 11, but that was the only change I’ve made to my machine that would be related in some way.

    Let us know which OS yall are on: 10 or 11 or other. Maybe there is a correlation here…

    It still doesn't work for me. I still have to set the read status directly in Gmail. This is extremely annoying as I have two gmail accounts.
