Greetings! How do you mark folders read in Windows Mail? In Thunderbird, for
instance, if you right click on a folder you get a drop down box with one of
the options being to mark the folder read. How can that be done in WM
without clicking on each message individually to mark it as read. Sometimes
I keep a group of messages as not read. Then when I'm finished with them, I
mark them as read. Thanks for your help.

What kind of folder? For some folders, click on the folder, then Edit, then
Catch Up.

Using the keyboard: Open the folder. Press Shift+Ctrl+A.
