mark read/unread envelope outlook 2007 by one mouse click

Hi, I'm looking for a feature how to get from Outlook the option to mark an email read/unread by one mouse click like in Thunderbird.
I know the schortcuts Ctrl+U and Ctrl+Q but there is it nesseccary to take hand from mouse to keyboard :(.
Thx in advance for any offers.

You can right-click the message and choose Mark as Read/Mark as Unread. I know that's two clicks but.....

The only other option is to add those two buttons to the toolbar. Then you can do it with just one click.

Thx, you are right these are the only posibilities outlook offers.
i hoped for some vba code or so that would do what i wanted. just one click on the envelope like in thunderbird

So having a 'Mark as read' button for the unread messages and a 'Mark as unread' button for the read messages is not sufficient? That seems to satisy your question "mark an email read/unread by one mouse click"

you are right, but to hit the buttom "mark unread" you have to move off the selected message.
the right Soubject should then be: "mark an email read/unread by one mouse click not moving the mouse off the message.
at any case i apreciate your recurrence.
Thx.
