Title:
  Stop auto-marking notifications to "read"

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently, Mahara marks a new inbox notification as "read" if the
  notification was emailed to the user.

  The idea behind this, was to avoid user annoyance when they've already
  read a notification in their email, and now have to look at it again
  in Mahara.

  However, as more social network services have come on to the Internet,
  they have settled on the opposite norm. When a social network emails
  you about a notification, it also tends to still mark that
  notification "unread" within the social network itself. So, Mahara
  should behave the same way in order to avoid confusing users.
