User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021126 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021126 After I have caught up on the watched threads in a newsgroup and then picked some threads to read, I like to ignore the threads that are left, so that the list isn't cluttered with all the old threads that I wasn't incited to read. At the moment I tend to go through after reading and hold K down until it's finished. However, fixing bug 112833 would make it easier to do this, and even easier would it be if an "Ignore Remaining Threads" command were implemented (see below for details). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Expected Results: The way I would design the Ignore Remaining Threads command is to ignore threads in the current newsgroup matching _all_ of these criteria: - whose headers have actually been downloaded (so that one doesn't miss new threads that were started while looking through currently downloaded headers) - aren't watched - aren't flagged or downloaded for offline reading - have unread messages in them

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01". This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug (given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more reproduction information if you have it. If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Still no obvious sign of such a feature, but at least now bug 112833 has been dealt with life is a little easier.

any news reader that does something like this that can be looked at as model?

What about "Mark Newsgroup Read" in the right-click menu for the newsgroup (in the left pane of the 3-pane window)?

You tell me: What has "Mark Newsgroup Read" to do with this RFE?

(In reply to comment #5) > You tell me: What has "Mark Newsgroup Read" to do with this RFE? > Easy: if you do, then after new unread messages arrive afterwards, "Next unread" will find only them, and not whatever was unread before; similarly for the "Unread Messages" view of the messages list.

That has nothing whatsoever to do with ignoring threads. Ignoring is a feature whereby you tell the newsreader not to show you any more messages from the thread, either new or old. Marking a newsgroup read merely marks the already-downloaded message headers as read; it does nothing to remove the clutter of new messages being posted on the same old threads.
