Some messages don't get marked "read" for a long time after opening

Hi. I'm using T-bird v 115.3.2, and since the upgrade to 115, I've been seeing weird behavior regarding opening messages vs their getting marked read.

I'm referring to actually opening the message in a new window (I do not use the preview window--it is turned off).

My usual reading behavior is to open a message, read it, then press <F> to go to the next message. In either case, most messages immediately get marked as read. However, some random messages do not get marked as read immediately--after a delay, the message gets marked as read. It seems to be related to messages from some specific senders, as opposed to random messages. For example, marketing messages from Southwest Airlines always seem to have this issue, as do the daily newsletters from "The Hustle."

What are the criteria for T-bird to think a message has been read? If it matters, I'm seeing this on mailboxes where I use IMAP access. I have not seen it occur in the mailbox where I use POP3 access, but almost all of those messages are plain text.

Hi everyone! Apologies upfront in case this question has already been asked, but I'm struggling to see if something similar was already posted... In a nutshell: I delete messages in my inbox (or any other folder) in Thunderbird, but when I login to the website of my mail provider (gmx.net) or check the app on my phone, I still see these mails on the imap server. Is this a known issue? What could be the reason?

Email that I am sending from Thunderbird is being rejected for no apparent reason by the recipient server. This is not due to an ISP or sending server security issue since, when I send exactly the same email from my ISP email web page (not Thunderbird) the email is received properly and accepted without error. So, the problem is most definitely with Thunderbird. The following is the header text from one of the rejection replies.

Do not reply that his is an issue with my ISP. It is not. It is purely a Thunderbird issue. Thanks for your time.

Firefox is my browser, and Outlook my email program. After years of troublefree access to Kickstarter, I now cannot link to the site, neither by Google search, nor by responding to an email link sent to me by Kickstarter. Instead, I get a message which reads:

'You are sending too many requests to Kickstarter at this time. Please contact support@kickstarter.com if you continue to see this error.'

I have contacted Kickstarter, but their response is that the problem probably lies with my browser. Do you have any idea why this problem should suddenly have appeared?

This morning I suddenly could not send emails from Thunderbird. I contacted my ISP (Plusnet) and they demonstarted that if I used webmail I could send emails and they concluded there was a problem with thunderbird. They suggested removing my account and re-inputting it - which I did. Not only did this not answer the problem but all my folders to which I have moved messages have all disappeared. This is a huge problem for me. Are they all in the cloud? is there anyway I can retrieve them?

I use the read aloud function of Firefox regularly and it keeps skipping important parts of the texts! Attached is a screencap of the article I was reading today, the most recent example of this (https://www.analystnews.org/posts/to-understand-the-israel-palestine-conflict-start-with-these-two-simple-questions). I have highlighted the sentence the reader skipped. Do I have a setting not marked properly? What can be done to fix this?
