Default how to set messages as read

MS Outlook Express does not have the ability to interact with the IMAP
server as does MS Outlook.

Let me clarify:

Regular mailbox (not IMAP) would work by selecting the messages and

them as "read" but this function does not work on IMAP accounts.

Hello

I have already tried that but it does not work. I forgot to mention that
my emails are IMAP accounts.

There is a function to mark all messages as "read" on Outlook so it works
on Outlook, however with Outlook Express, selecting all the messages and
clicking on "mark all messages as read" does not work.

Any other solution?

For e-mail, click on any message header to highlight the header | Ctrl+A
to highlight all messages | Right click | Mark As Read. I don't believe
you can mark messages as read except for the PC you are currently on.

I use Win XP Home Edition and OE 6

I use several PCs. Can someone be kind enough to tell me how do I set
all of my incoming/outgoing messages as all "read" (finished reading)
without having to select each mail one by one?

Thank you.
