Details

Mozilla should allow the user to mark newsgroup messages read by date (for
example "up to 1/2/2001" to leave the "unread" status only for messages newer
than the given date). Netscape 4.* has this feature (directly under the Mark
button) while Mozilla lack this in Message | Mark menu (true up to the last 2000
build). I do not think there is any other way to do that except to sort the
messages by date, then mark them manually and finally use Message | Mark |
As_read from menu (much more labor intensive).
Marking NEW.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Summary: (RFE) Mark messages read by date → [RFE] Mark messages read by date
accepting.  thanks for logging this bug.  

I'll add this to the "Mark" menu and the "Mark" toolbar button, once it comes
back.

Changing keyword to 4xp (as it is a Netscape 4 feature) and therefore removing
RFE from Summary and reverting Severity to "normal" (as 4xp implies a bug, not
RFE). 
Severity: enhancement → normal
Keywords: 4xp
Summary: [RFE] Mark messages read by date → Mark messages read by date

I believe this bug is a duplicate of bug #16967
Actually, I think that ug #16967 should be marked as a dup of this, despite
having been filed earlier, since this one shows that it's a 4xp bug and not an RFE.
I second to marking bug 16967 as a dup of this one. It is not only because I
filed it, but because sspitzer eagerly accepted this bug, while putterman (the
assignee of bug 16967) never commented on that one. Anyway, I believe this is
mail front end, not back-end like in 16967 (isn't it?)

Any comments from the persons responsible for the bugs? I'm adding
putterman@netscape.com to CC.
It may be 4xp, but it's still a feature! I don't think 16967 is an RFE.  I'm
going to mark this as a dup because I can't tell any difference between the
bugs.  To be honest, it doesn't really matter which way it goes.
