That's cool - what does it do? I could imagine it does mark all msg as
read... or what? I mean it's still mail... so it needs to dl it... maybe
it does automagically only download the headers? Oh I like the idea :D

In Thunderbird I look at all the topics (mails sorted by thread), and if
not interested mark the hole folder (mails sorted into folders on
server) as "read". But the next time I check my mails there are new
"unread" mails that belong to that same thread I didn't want to read. So
I have to mark them as "read" again. A function like in Claws and
Kmail... I have to search for add-ons for Thunderbird... thanx for that
idea!

(please note: I'm talking about client-features, not
delivery/storage-systems)

Bye,
Daniel

(sorry for this "traffic", I hope this mail is more worth a smile on
your face than an annoyance :)

BTW: I know n00b-unfriendly communities - and gentoo isn't one!
