In Common Preferences, you can set Sylpheed to mark messages as read only
when they are opened in a new window. Also, you can disable the "open first
unread message when entering a folder" feature, entirely. Not sure how to
make Sylpheed open the last unread message though.

Worth adding to FAQ, perhaps.
