The TBeast updated itself again yesterday. So far I have only found one
annoyance but it's a *really* annoying one. I have only one newsgroup
now (which is ample... :)) and in Old Thunderbird it was set to show me
by default only new messages. However, should I wish to, I could toggle
the view to show mw older messages. New Thunderbird had a stupid little
button that did the toggling but by default showed me everything on
first opening it.

Since the update it shows me only unread messages and I can't access the
old ones - they're still there, if I click the toggle button they appear
momentarily and then disappear again. Has anyone else had this behaviour
and solved it? Otherwise I'll have to go onto the truly annoying Mozilla
discussion board, which is full of people who don't see the point.

There is a Thunderbird usenet group.

alt.comp.software.thunderbird

It seems quite an active group. Might be worth a punt.

Success is a journey, not a destination.
