I had taken your suggestions and finally decided upon replacing the
lousy newsgroup app that came with Vista and am now using Thunderbird
instead.
I like it a lot, however I just noticed a problem that I don't
seem able to fix!
With Outlook Express there was a setting allowing you to show
only new unread messages as they came in when ever you opened a
particular group. After 5 seconds, any opened message in that group was
considered "read" and so didn't show up again unless you did a search
for it.
In Thunderbird I cannot seem to find a setting for this and each
morning I keep getting the same messages over and over whether I've read
them or not. Is there a solution to this I haven't come across?
Also, if anyone remembers the old Puppet TV show called
"Thunderbirds" which came out from the same guy in England that
previously did one called, "Fireball XL500", a sci-fi puppet show of the
same type, there was a three-letter acronym code response that all the
characters used as an affirmation...FOB, or FOP...I'm not sure. But I
saw an old re-run of one of the "Thunderbird" episodes while lying
around in the hospital last month, ( You can only play around with the
nurses for so long and then even THEY get boring! <g> ), and ever since
I've been trying to remember what it actually stands for!
This unimportant question will bug me for the rest of my life
unless someone can help me with the answer!
Thanx in advance!
