I'm relatively new to the seamonkey newsreader and I'm trying to make
peace with it. I'm just about there except for one feature I need, and
that is a way to distinguish read from unread posts. Among the
user-selectable column headers there is a category, "read", which when
checked displays a green dot after a given header, including responses
within a thread. That ought to do it, but unfortunately every message in
every thread, read or unread, displays the green dot, so I'm either
doing something wrong, or misinterpreting what it is supposed to
represent, or it doesn't work. What's actually happening here?


OK, I think I get it. It's not automatic, unlike the late lamented OE.
You click the dot, you lose the dot, and that is how the read/unread
distinction is expressed.



I added the Status column to the Thread pane, which switches from New to Read depending how long you have your Message Display settings configured.

Mine is set to Automatically mark messages as read > After displaying for 3 seconds.
