yes possible and not hard to to:

open privat.php

after require(global.php add

PHP Code:

if($action=="markread") {

$DB_site->query("UPDATE privatemessage SET messageread=1, readtime='".time()."' WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
} 


then all you have to do is to add a link to private.php?action=markread and all well be marked read.

not nice because of no messages put to screen but it worx
