Hello Tim, I use a "userContent.css" script that does the same thing as
the add-on you mention. Wouldn't be without it (works in Thunderbird and
Seamonkey).

Do you recall the name of this add-on, Tim?

Which is why I added the [Thunderbird tip] in the subject and stated it
was for Thunderbird mail only, in my previous post (tho' it will likely
work in the mail client side of Seamonkey, too) :-)

Other mail clients may be able to filter on that header, they may just
do it differently. Many news-clients can, if they read via gmane.

Thanks.
