Thanks Milan!

I did indeed overlook
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2022-August/msg00138.html . Thanks
for pointing it out.

Command "gsettings describe org.gnome.evolution.mail mark-seen-always" yields the
following information:

"If set to true, the selected message will be set as unread after the timeout also
after the folder change."

What's described in the preceding isn't what I want. I want it set to **read** after
the timeout, without regard to folder change. My org.gnome.evolution.mail is set to
"mark-seen", and a describe on that yields:

"Mark as Seen after specified timeout."

The preceding is exactly what I want. And in many cases, it's exactly what I get.
But intermittently it isn't marked as seen after timeout, and requires changing
folders and then changing back to the original.

Thanks,

Steve
