I reported it as a bug and Jelsoft have fixed it for new threads [in the next release] but they won't do it for posts, as there could be other unread posts in between you viewing a thread and replying (I'm still not entirely sure why this would be a problem).

I suppose it would be possible to add some plugin code to mark them as read as part of this hack, and i'll look at it sometime in the future, but it's not a big priority for me atm.
