Hello Steve, SL> The way we did it in VA (sorry to keep bringing that up) was to always SL> have the threads opened by default
This can be done by change message list column settings. SL> Unlike in The Bat! and Outlook, the messages in VA never changed SL> status from unread to read in x seconds while reading. Instead, SL> hitting the return key to move to the next message marked it as SL> unread. Thank you for pointing to this. We already have a possibility to read messages using the Space key. I've added two more options to space bar reading today: to move to the next unread message (requested before) and to mark message as read when taking off the current message. Also, a new action "SmartSpace reading" is added, so it's possible to add the action to the local menu of message list, preview and/or folder tree and define another hot-key (like Enter). -- Cheers!
