I have Thunderbird 38.5.1 on Ubuntu 15.10 now. I don't remember the old
setting, but it may have been changed inbetween. There are three ways to
configure it now: "Off" (done by a check box, which is unchecked here),
"Immediately", or "after x seconds", where x is 2147483 (looks like -1)
in my configuration, no idea where this number came from.

In fact there has been no automatic "set to read" for a very long time
on this machine, so I suppose this issue may be closed now.

Regards,

Chris

Title:
  Unchecking "mark message as read after xxx seconds" immediately marks
  msgs as read

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Using:
  Ubuntu 8.04.1 "Hardy Heron"
  Thunderbird 2.0.0.16 (20080724), Package 2.0.0.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1

  Problem / watched behaviour:
  When the option "mark message as read after xxx seconds" is unchecked, every selected mail is marked as read immediately, even if "10" is given as the number of seconds.

  Expected behaviour:
  Unchecking this option should never mark messages automatically as read, if they are only shown in the preview pad.

  Workaround:
  Check this option and enter "9999" as the number of seconds.
