This isn't a fix, but may make things a little more bearable until a fix is provided: about:config news.update_unread_on_expand;false Of course you'll need to 'get new msgs' to refresh, but at least it stops SM from going out and refreshing the entire list of newsgroups when you expand the new server. (This is a real issue for those of use that may have 20 or 30 newsgroups that we are subscribed to on a single server (gmane.org for instance). _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
