I'm sure I'm stating the obvious but... Mail and Newsgroups have "hidden" unread messages: New messages are shown by the group and thread indicators, but expanding the thread doesn't show the message. In mail, if you delete the visible messages in the thread, the unshown one(s) will show up. I haven't been able to get the news groups to show these messatges. Mail/News seems to fetch a message fine but the "progress bar" at the bottom never stops. Also, the arrow with clock pointer shows up and stays set over the message window when this happens. Why isn't the system wait pointer used?
