    Just curious...

    Is there a way to click on (not open) an 'unread' bold message title, and not
    have it change to 'read' unbold immediately? That is, rather than go from bold to unbold immediately, set it so that the message title perhaps changes from bold to unbold after a set number of seconds, or not at all.

    Go to Settings.
    Type "read" in the search box at the top of Settings.
    In the search results, look for
    [x] Automatically mark messages as read
    and the two options underneath.
