Wendy_S The read functionality still exists.
As shown in the below screenshot, there is a blue dot to indicate that there is an unread message in the thread. Once you open the thread, it is set to read. There is no need to go to options and mark them all as read. The notification counter does not update currently in real-time. It needs a page refresh. We are planning to enhance it to update the counter real-time.
Regarding the capability to know if a private message sent by a user is read by the recipient, that does not exist in UI in v3. As ArnaudL mentioned, there are APIs to know whether a message is read or not.
