Mac: Mark email as read - how it works

On Mac OS, you can mark multiple emails as read. We show you how this works in this guide.

Mark emails as read

1. Open the Mac OS Mail program.
2. Now mark all emails that you want to mark as read. With the key combination CMD + mouse click you can select several emails at the same time. To mark all mails, use the key combination CMD + A.
3. Then click in the menu bar on the entry "E-Mail" -> "Mark" -> "As read". Now the selected emails are marked as read.
4. Note: If you only have the problem that emails that have already been read are not marked as read, scroll the email from top to bottom. Only then will the program mark the message as read.
