Thanks. I knew that you could label things, didn't realise that 1-5 did
is so quickly.

Interesting features Phill, care to share how you set those up in 20

There's something about Evol that I just liked, but it just didn't
stack up for reliability sadly. I also have to swap platforms quite a
bit and TB deals very well with that challenge.
Cheers Don

As an aside, one really great feature of thunderbird is the ability to
define your own labels and label colours and then assign them to any
message by hitting keys 1 to 5.
I find this extremely helpful given I receive hundreds of emails each
day (too many mailing lists).
If an email is urgent I hit "1" and it is marked in red in the message
list so I know I must reply to it the same day.
When I reply to it later in the day I hit "2" and it is marked green
"replied".
If I want to think about an email or reply to it when time suits (ie:
not urgent) I hit "3" and it's marked orange for "review".
Such a simple feature and very useful.
I still use Evolution for some of my mail accounts but find myself using
Thunderbird more and more often.
I can tell you, Don.
From the menu drop-down "Tools", select "Options".
Push the "Display" button and then select the "labels" tab.
Change the colors and descriptions for the labels as you desire.
The three on the left are relate to keys 1, 2 and 3 (from the top down).
The two on the right relate to keys 4 and 5 (from the top down).
To unselect a label press the "0" key.
That's all there is to it.
Brat.
