Hi, all,

climbed up a big rock and began to chant:
AM> Suppose you get 30 messages in a folder and you are picking out the
AM> interesting ones to read and some are long. You reach message 15 of the
AM> new messages, while there are some twenty seen messages for later.
AM> Suddenly there's a timeout and all the new messages are changed to
AM> 'seen.' I say, Aw shucks and have to look for the new ones to continue
AM> reading. Wouldn't it be better if you read what you wanted to and then
AM> at the end hit a keyboard shortcut which would label all unread messages
AM> 'seen' and not 'new' and then you move on?
After all... Why not? :)
>> If you want a manual toggle, It may be this one, as it is a better
>> priorities management to spend time, hand working, with urgent posts,
>> than to spend it with all the non-urgents.
AM> Sure.
>> In this case:
>> Red (new posts in): I open the folder.
>> A time (user defined): All "new" posts in it are marked "seen".
>> Orange.
>> (If I want, for any reason, to keep one "new")
>> I press ctrl+something: This particular post is marked "new". Red.
>> Agreed?
AM> Yes.
>> If you really *hate* this auto change (why not), and want a manual
>> toggle, for me I *don't* want to hand work and waste time with *each*
>> non-urgent posts. So, I can live with a manual toggle which changes
>> *all* the "new" posts to "seen" with only *one* mouse click. Could
>> you?
AM> Sure. You read what you wish to read and then use the keyboard shortcut
... or a mouse click...
AM> that labels all unread messages 'seen'. You then move on. No need to hit
AM> the shortcut for each message.
If this agree everybody, I may enjoy it near the same I would enjoy my
first wish. So... :))))
Anything about this idea?
