After marking messages as read in a newsgroup, if I leave the group and

backed up SeaMonkey with MozBackup and all newsgroups came back as
expected. Any thoughts?
Bruce, SM keeps a record of which messages you have read in each group
of a news server that you have subscribed to. For instance, for this
news server, news.mozilla.org, the file is news.mozilla.org.rc.
If a message number is missing, in a news group, that indicates to SM
that that message is unread, so the message Subject: in the Threads
Pane, is bolded. Ensure that you have not set the relevant *.rc file to
be Read Only, as that would cause SM to think you have not read any of
the messages in that group.
As you're on Windows 10, you may need to adjust your File Viewing
settings, in Windows Explorer, so you can display the files buried down
in your SM profile!
