Thanks, Tony. Not sure how much of that I've fully understood. But
next time the box opens, maybe I'll just click on 'Yes' and that will
take me to the group in question, from which I can then quietly check
out, and the thing won't happen again?
Good cheer - Ken (in Oz)

I have SM 2.0. 14 and Windows 7.
When my Inbox is open in its regular function (i.e., for receiving
standard emails, not one of my listed user groups such as this one), do
boxes sometimes appear in the middle of the screen saying, for example,
'Confirm. Advance to next unread message in alt.video.dvd?' (I don't
think I have used that particular group for months, btw.)
All help appreciated.

This is what you see when clicking "go to next unread" or hitting N or
selecting "Go → Next Unread" (and possibly similar buttons, hotkeys and
menus), and there isn't any unread message (other than, possibly, the
one currently selected) in the folder you're viewing. SeaMonkey then
asks permission to go to the first unread message in a *different*
folder (or newsgroup or RSS feed).
The example you mentioned is of a Usenet (NNTP) group, maybe the first
one (as shown in the left pane) of those to which you're subscribed. Of
course, newsgroup messages posted by other people accumulate, SeaMonkey
knows approximately how many there are (it will know more precisely when
that group becomes current), and it offers to go to the first of them.
You then have the choice of clicking Yes (or hitting Y) or clicking No
(or hitting N) to tell SeaMonkey whether or not you want to switch to
that newsgroup (or it could be to another mail folder, e.g. if you have
filters which move your mail out of your Inbox and to specific folders
depending on where they come from).
Best regards,
Tony.
