   Daniel70 to All   
   Marking Cross-posts as Read.

   From: daniel47@nomail.afraid.org   
      
   Back in the Mozilla Suite days (or was it Netscape Navigator days) the   
   ability to mark Cross-Posts messages as READ was removed/disabled for   
   some reason.   
      
   I recall a Bugzilla entry being made to request its re-enactment and, on   
   my HP Laptop, I did keep a record of the Bug number but that Laptop has   
   been replaced so I can't recall what the Bug number was .... or even   
   what my Bugzilla Log-in info was so can't check the details myself.   
      
   If anybody is interested in that Bug ... in the Eternal-September groups   
   (*.test, I think) today, one of the posters (Colin Macleod) was testing   
   incorporating this function into his newsreader (NOT TB or SM but does   
   'Newsgrouper' ring anybody's bells) and has achieved success,   
   apparently, so I asked if I could mention this to the SM Devs.   
      
   His information was posted to   
      
   https://chiselapp.com/user/cmacleod/repository/newsgrouper/info/   
   4c61510f13984fb   
      
   so if any of the Devs are interested in re-instating this ability, they   
   might want to have a look. Of course, it WILL be written in a Comp   
   Language you don't understand and the Variables will all be different   
   but you never know!! ;-P
