But, you can use the trick/workaround of having *another* smart mailbox, 
which is set to include ‘messages in the first smart mailbox’ (under 
Mailboxes) and ‘read’ (under Conditions), and have the rule on 
*that* mailbox; then, when you mark a message in the first mailbox as 
read, it will be ‘added’ to the second mailbox, and trigger the rule 
there.
