Mac Mail emails are already marked as read

I have 4 mail boxes configured in to my Mac Mail. The problem is, in one mail box, when i receive emails to that mailbox, the messages are already marked as Read. It's configured as IMAP. What should i do on this? Thanks!

Mac Mail-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Hi


Thanks, installed it and trying but the problem remains, once the mail is turned into read (bold type face, ot the little blue bullet that works fine and does not come back I found out), it becomes unread again i.e., bold type face). I will fiddle with the plugin a bit but it seems the problem is elsewhere.

Actually for me it seems to work ... partially. Bold face and blue bullet stay in palce unless I reply or open the email. However, the plug-in does not get everything. It's like it's very selective as to what it determines to be new, old and read.


One of my favorite Email Client was Eudora. I may have to look at that again. Entourage was great but when it crashes, It crashes hard. Even with backup files.


Hopefully Apple will beef up and put some effort into their mail client. So many feature that are missed.
