I have 215 GB of free space.
The same problem happened now with this NG, SeaMonkey asked me if I
wanted to download about 85k messages... and it also does not keep the
read/unread/watch flag.
The current count of all messages in the NG available on the server is
84,433, so that must be what it was offering. But it wasn't offering to
download the whole messages, just the headers. There's an option in that
dialog to download only nn messages and mark all the rest as read.
That's right, but instead of downloading them only the 1st time, it
keeps asking the same thing every time I open the newsgroup and the same
problem is with another news server with several NGs I'm subscribed.
On my system, it does keep track of read/unread. When I join a new NG, I
begin by downloading all the messages, which takes a few minutes but in
the end it's worth it. I mark all as read. Then I sort by date and mark
the last couple of weeks as unread, and re-sort using
Sort by -- Date, Ascending, Threaded
Messages -- All
Threads -- Threads with Unread
[CUT]
Exactly, it worked for me too until a few days ago!
Now after downloading the headers (or the full messages for the NGs I
set to syncronize and want a local copy), it shows "unread" (with the
green down arrow) but the menu "mark all as read" is greyed out, and I
don't understand which messages are actually already read or not.
If I hit "N" it does jump to the next unread message.
Another issue: when I open a news server account, the number of the
messages for each NGs is refreshed every time, and now I see some of
them "empty".
A similar problem is with my IMAP email accounts.
So I think some SeaMonkey preference has been corrupted, even reparing
the IMAP folders didn't work.
Maybe I should create a new SM account, but would like to keep all the
browser tabs, menu bar URL, address book and cookies! Do you know is
it's possible?
I forgot to say that also the address book sometimes does not work, I
got an alert about being in use by another program!
Any clue? :)
thanx
Gabriel
