Thanks to all that replied.  I will try to accurately respond to
the advice offered here, in the same order as my original
e-mail.

Questions

1 - The Addresses pane does not seem to be implemented
accurately yet.  There are also some symantical oddities in my
reading of the explanation and the actual function of the top
"pane" in the preference page.

2 - Adding a custom filter rule seems a bit cumbersome.  In
reality, do you ever care if you have read your own Sent
e-mails?  This is the only MUA I have run across that has this
behaviour by default (some you can change to behave this way),
so it seems logical that it should be configurable to not treat
any messages in the "Sent" folder as unread or new rather than
having to build a custom "one-off" solution each place I install
M.

3 - Well, generally the "Text Only" viewer displays HTML-only
messages  (a la Outlook created) as:
[Attachment: TEXT/HTML, 32 lines]

and using the "View as text" option (from
right-mouse-click) yields this sort of thing:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" 
xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" 
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";>

        font-size:12.0pt;
        font-family:"Times New Roman";
        mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";}

Which needless to say is slightly difficult to read...  So
having some sort of "convert and/or strip" to plain text
function would be beneficial IMO.

Thanks for all the suggestions,
