I just received my new dell comp/ with windows xp..in my outlook express email program when reading messages the font is supposed to go from bold to regular text after a couple seconds of viewing (or at least that's how it worked in windows 98 on my old computer). I've checked under tools/options/read and it has 2 seconds checked for marking as read. In the side view under folders where it displays number of messages unread - it does change but the actual subject line (text) doesn't change from bold. In other words looking at all my messages you can't tell which have been read or not?

help appreciated.
