More info on my intermittent failure of messages to mark themselves as read

Hi all,

I think this problem has several root causes, any one of which can cause it.

First, there's a difference between the light blue background on an email when you
first select a folder, and the dark blue background when you click on that message.
I think I need to click on it in order to mark as read.

Second, I must wait the entire 2 seconds, that I specified in the config, for the
message to realize it's been read.

However, there are still intermittent situations where a message stubbornly refuses
to mark itself as read. This occurs almost exclusively on the message that first
gets the light blue background when I move to the folder. I click on that message
and wait 2 seconds, 5 seconds or whatever, and it remains unread.

These pesky messages soon mark themselves as read when I leave the folder and come
back once or twice, but it's inconvenient because I keep clicking on folders having
nothing unread due to the false unread status.

Given this new info, any ideas for either a root cause or diagnostic tests I can
perform?
