Read pages are just what you see when you open and email message that
you received, they have nothing to do with being read only.

You can check in Item_Open for Size=0 or EntryID="" to see if this is
a new message. If not you can lock every control on the form or you
can disable saving the form by canceling any Item_Write events.
