Check your permissions on /tmp.  Most mail readers use tmp to store a
copy of the mail file and if it can't write to tmp then it can't modify
your mail spool and hence makes it read only.

drwxrwxrwt   6 root     root         6144 Jun  6 14:07 /tmp/

If this is not how it is do a 'chmod 1777 /tmp' as root.
