WordPress Theme That Looks Like an Email Client?

    Do you know of a WordPress theme (or any content management system, for that matter) that looks like an email client? Or would I be better off going with another system?

    I have uploaded a sample image below. I want it to have the capability that when people read a "message" or "post," that the bold goes to a normal font. Also, I want people to be able to read the post in the below window. Again, just as an email application would do.

    Hi Sabrina, I don't think you will find anything like this in a simple wordpress theme. What you are talking about is more of a webapp than a website. For something to go from 'bold' when unread to 'unbold' when clicked on involves creating user accounts and tracking what posts or emails a user has clicked on or not.

    Unfortunately I think what you're looking for is more complicated than you are anticipating. What functionality are you actually looking for?

    Thank you for your response.

    I guess I'm actually looking for more of the look and feel of an email client, even if I have to use something other than Wordpress. I am more interested in the design. Can you recommend a designer for this?
