In New Outlook, it opens an email when I click on it.

I want to change the setting to double-click. Please help.

    I finally got mine fixed in the new version!!!

    1. File > Options > Advanced
    2. Under Outlook panes, select Reading Pane.
    3. Uncheck the box Mark item as read when the selection changes.
    4. Check the box Mark items as read when viewed in the Reading Pane.

    I do not have a File option anywhere.
