Hello Daniel, thanks for your answer, but I think I did not do my question very well (my english is not so good ;-) I try again with some example:
in my inbox I wants to view all messages read and unread, because it is there because I have to do something with it, otherwise I move them. in a mailing list folder (where messages are filtered to) I only wants to view unread messages / threads. for example I have folder 'the bat'. if I do View -> Display - > Only unread messages, then it works, but unfortionaly this setting is then for _all_ my folders wich I dont want. I hope I make more sence now ;-) -- Rgds, Wilfried http://www.mestdagh.biz mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
