- In my Inbox I have in the menu bar, View drop down, sorted set for:
in order received, ascending, unthreaded.
- In the view selection box I have 'all'
- In the search box I enter a phrase e.g. 'vim' (which is an address
fragment). This selects a whole group of messages from vim.
- I set all these messages to unread.
- In order to facilitate reading these in a logical order, I press
the threading marker on the top header line.
- Now I'd like to read the articles of a thread in the order that
they are listed in the threaded tree.

- THis is where I run into problems.
I select, open, and read the first article/message of the thread.
Now, What is the proper sequence of keystrokes to progress to the next
message/article in the thread?
Both n or f at the end of an article take me to the first article
of the next thread!
and NOT to the next article in the thread list!
IF/when I backtrack to the article list pane, the article list
for the chosen thread is collapsed and underlined. So I have to
expand it to get to the next artilce.

If you have it set for unthreaded, of course F'll take you to the next message in the list, which may or may not be part of the thread.

N takes you to the next unread message, F takes you to the next article in the list according to the sort order you've chosen.

If you want to read threads containing unread messages from vim, set your sort to threaded, press N for his first message, and then F until you come to the end of the thread. Then N for the next unread message from vim, F for the next message in that thread, etc.

It would probably help to set your view options to show "threads with unread." That way, all the fully read threads will be hidden.
