>> [-] Other: Confirmation related fixes (icons, buttons, >> folder name substitution) > Great! Not great. It's still buggy, unusable and I'm reverting to version 3.65. If you disable both confirmaton dialogs concerning marking folders or subfolders as read, there is now *no* possibility at all to mark subfolders as read. You must visit every sub-folder one by one and mark every one of them as read. The only other option is to enable the confirmation dialog again. 9Val promised that RITlabs would fix this problem (marking sub-folders as read), so I hope this will be addressed in the next beta version. You only need to add a new item to the Folder menu: beside "Mark all messages Read" there should also be the menu item "Mark all messages in sub-folders as Read". As soon as there is a menu item for this command, we can assign a keyboard shortcut to it (for example, CTRL+SHIFT+M) and the problem is solved. *That* is what causes the current unusability: the absence of the command "Mark all messages in sub-folders as Read" in the Folder menu or pop-up context menus. Speaking of confirmation dialogs: can you please add "View mode has changed, do you want to keep this?" to the list of confirmation dialogs that can be disabled? Or, better yet, could you make that confirmation dialog behave properly, that is: could that dialog pop up *only* when the view mode has *really* changed? Example: I'm reading a folder, then I switch to the thread-view of that folder, then I switch *back* to the original view. When I want to leave that folder, the confirmation dialog pops up, although the folder view mode now is identical with the stored folder view mode! So this confirmation dialog really should only pop up when the view mode of the folder is *changed* from the view mode that is stored, and there should be *no* confirmation dialogs if you merely change the view mode of that folder temporarily while reading that folder and return the folder to its original=stored view mode before leaving the folder.
