I use the current "Unread" tab under my folder tree exactly as I interpret it...to view only the _folders_ that have unread messages in them. And why not? It's a tab under my _folder_ tree. The tabs are different views of _folders_, not messages. Now, if there was a tab under my message list that said "Unread", I'd expect it to show only the _messages_ marked as unread. That said, your solution sounds good to me. I'd vote for it! > Any thoughts on this? No offense, but the "me too" posts aren't > really adding much to the discussion. None taken. But it wasn't really an official aol-like "me too". It was an answer to his question. Sure his was probably a rhetorical question but it stirred enough of an emotion in me to hit F4 and answer it. -- Matt ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.23 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
