Cannot find option to mark all emails as read on Mac

I want to mark all of my thousands of old emails as read. On my Mac I can select all with command "a" but the menu doesn't show a "mark all as read"option. Anybody know where that is hiding?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 26.4

You'll also find it in the menu bar: Message > Mark as Read (⇧⌘U)
