There is a Preference to MARK MESSAGES AS READ WHEN VIEWED IN THE PREVIEW
PANE that you could deselect.

And speaking of the Preview Pane, you can close that while tabbing (page
up/down/arrow keys) through the messages list, thereby not even opening
(previewing) the e-mail contents.

Both features already exist. They are accessible from the menus on top, or
by keyboard shortcut in the case of (temporarily) turning off the preview
pane. In EvX it's Command+Backslash.
