Good morning, we have couple of people using the same e-mail address. Is there a way to disable marking an e-mail as read for me when other person (different computer, different e-mail client) reads it?

Each version of Thunderbird sees the account separately, being unaware of another copy also accessing the account. As such, it makes decisions assuming authority for the account.
