How can I mark Mail as read in MS Outlook2010?

I am developing an application, in which I need to read the content (mail body) of the incoming mail. For this, I am using below code to trigger the event, every time when new mail comes -

outLookApp.NewMailEx += new ApplicationEvents_11_NewMailExEventHandler(MailExtractor.outLookApp_NewMailEx);

I am using MS outlook2010?
