Beem, I am not sure what you mean by additional "indicator headers". How did you set that up in SM? That said, I just changed my settings back to view-messages-all and view-threads-all, and mysteriously SM did not automatically mark all my messages as read. In other words, it appears like it used to. So my original problem, which appeared for reasons unknown, might be solved, also for reasons unknown. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
