116081 - Threads with unread is shown as All

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 108906

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Tomas Pihl]

Build ID: 2001121803 OS: WinXP

With the setting "Threads with Unread" + Threaded I still see all threads in the
subjectwindow even if the groups has been completely read. If I change to
setting "Unread", I see no threads in the sunbjectwindow but they comes back
when I select "Threads with Unread" again. It behaves like the groupsetting is
set for "All".
If I collapse and than expand my newsserver, I can see the group in question has
7 unread postings but as soon as I click on the newsgroup, the (7) after the
newsgroup-name disappears and the grouptext goes from bold to plain text.

I haven't seen this before. My last build was 20011214 I think so something has
happend the last week or so.

One thing I noticed was when I was reading the group, the last or some of the
last threads reappeared as I was reading, ie. I read a thread and all articles
was marked as read and then the same articles came back but this time they
wasn't marked read as I pressed N for "next unread". Perhaps the groups is in
some weired state now that messes things up. I don't know how to get out of it
though. Mark newsgroup read doesn't seem to make any difference.

dup of 108906 "Threads with only read messages still appear in "Threads with
unread" mode"
