This is how I read threaded mail. While in the message table I VO left arrow to thread, expand it with VO \. Next I jump to the first message with VO J. When I am finished reading that message, I press delete, which lands me back in the message table, where I press VO J and begin the process all over again. It might not be the right way, but it works for me. (Smilie!) On Jun 2, 2010, at 12:12 AM, M. Taylor wrote:
