Preference to "Mark as Read" isn't working

I'm using TB 52.9.1 on a Mac.

This morning I added a new email account, and after I added it something changed - in all of my email accounts.

I have a preference setting to mark emails as read after they have been visible for 3 seconds. That stopped working. I went into preferences and changed the time to 2 seconds (which didn't fix the problem) and then back to 3 seconds (which still didn't fix the problem).

Any suggestions?

Thanks Clint

Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.

Thanks for the suggestion Matt. Yesterday afternoon I was able to solve the problem. I turned off the preference to "Mark as Read" and then restarted TB. Then I turned that preference back on and restarted TB again, and the problem was solved. I probably should have posted an update yesterday. Sorry!
