Version: 1.8 (using KDE 3.4.0, Debian Package 4:3.4.0-0pre4 (3.1)) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.11 Sometimes it happens that I read emails and upon reading they are marked as "read", i.e., they turn from red to black. When I stay on the downward arrow to mark a bigger number of emails as read (I know, I could also use a right click menu on the whole folder), they stay black (=read), but after a moment they turn red again (=unread). I need to mention that I only have IMAP (cached imap) folders on my kolab server. It would be better to leave the read status once they have been read.

Is this still a problem for you in a recent kmail version?
