I checked your profile but this is the only question relating to unread staying bold, so I'm not sure what you mean by '4th time'.

Please check these settings. via 'Menu Bar': 'Tools' > 'Options' > 'Display' > 'Advanced' tab OR via 'Mail Toolbar': 'Menu icon' > 'Options' > 'Options' > 'Display' > 'Advanced' tab

  • select: 'Automatically mark messgaes as read'
  • select: 'immediately on display'
  • click on 'OK'
