You can cancel *your* posts with SM [the same as any other program as

The client usually allows for a way to cancel a post, but it's really
up to the news server whether the cancel is honored. Most news servers
don't support this.
I knew this too, but didn't want to confuse with my question about what
do they see as the difference between SM and Forte, since they are
treated the same by news servers. Do you know what they are talking about?
It sounded to me like they wanted to cancel their post. This is ultimately
a function of the news server. The user can demand the feature in their
news client all they want, but if the server doesn't provide the feature,
it's not going to work. I'm not aware of any public news server which
provide this feature.
Agreed, but what is the difference they see or advantage to using Forte
over SM? I don't see it, at least related to what was mentioned.
mark them "Read" and they will be gone when you come back [reload]. If
you want an entire thread to "disappear" just highlight one of the
messages and click "T" on the keyboard.
Hmmm, 't' just takes you to the next unread thread. I think you meant
to recommend 'r', which marks the current thread as 'read'.
That's funny, because in my versions of SM, "T" will mark the whole
thread "read" AND move to the next thread.
Well, that's a new one on me :) The UI simply says Go -> Next -> Unread
Thread. It doesn't say anything about marking the current thread "read",
but sure enough, that's what it appears to do.
Thanks,
LOL... you scared me for a minute, so I had to rush to test it and make
sure it still worked that way. :) Especially since, I just got 2.0.2
this morning. Happy to say it still does for me too.
