Bug: Messages always marked as read

Using Thunderbird 68.11.0 on Windows 10.

To reproduce, set:

Options / Display / Advanced / Reading: Check "Automatically mark messages as read" - After displaying for 6 seconds

View / Layout:

  • Classic pane
  • folder pane
  • message pane
  1. Click on an unread message.
  2. As soon as it's loaded in the message pane, switch to another message.
  3. 6 seconds later, the message you viewed for only a second will be marked as read.

Here's the crazy part: it is marked as read exactly X seconds after loading, where X is what you have set in "After displaying for X seconds"

I change that to 4 seconds, the message is marked read 4 seconds after loading. 10 seconds, it waits that long.

Note: if I uncheck "Automatically mark messages as read", that is honored.

Also, the feature works fine in Safe Mode. However, I have very few add-ons and they are all very popular:

  • Cardbook
  • Lightning
  • Provider for Google Calendar

Can't imagine any of those interfering. Thanks for any ideas.
