Interesting, I get the read and unread information read to me, as a matter of fact, the thing keeping me from moving to Thunderbird is that I haven't been able to figure out how to git rid of some of the information I don't want read. I really wish it would only read the unread status and not the read status, and I really, truly wish I could get it to stop reading all of the recipients of a message. I know the message was sent to me, so why do I want that read, and I really don't care how many other people it was sent to,, if I want that information I can always read the information in the header of the message itself. I am finding getting through the list of messages really annoying, I just want to know if the message is unread, who sent it, the date and time, and the subject. I don't mind also knowing if the message has an attachment, but would prefer to not have that read either given a choice. I really want to be able to browse through messages quickly with the minimum information I need to determine if I want to read the message now or later. To me, any extra information can be gleaned from the message itself and just slows me down in browsing the list of messages.

So, I guess I am in the same boat as you, I want less information read, and you want more. I have'nt been able to find anywhere in the settings to select or deselect the columns read, if anyone gave you the info off list, I would appreciate getting it as well, and if nobody has responded, maybe somebody could give that info if they have it. BTW, I am using version 3 beta 4.

I just installed thunderbird. The headers it reads are conveying too much info. How can I choose what to include in the headers. I also would like to add the "read" and "unread" field to be read. I gave the graphics labels, but they are nnot being read as part of the header.

Thx,
Rick
