With NS 4.61, when I click on the [+] beside the name of a news server, the tree expands and each newsgroup is "scanned" and the name is bolded if it contains new/unread messages.
With Mozilla 0.9.7, I see the message in the status line: "Checking newsgroup 2 of 41 on <server-name> for new messages", and that's as far as it gets. I have to click on each newsgroup separately to get its "status." -=- Alan
