'ticks' (!) tend to get lost. The tick marks tend to get converted to 'read/unseen' (O.); I wondering whether 'O.' is a contradiction in itself? If you think it's a good idea to drop the tick, please consider to put it into the unread status. BTW, I've the habit to tick articles without reading them first... Sometimes while splitting articles end up in two groups. I set 'E' in one group; the other one will automatically been marked as 'O' (read)---that's a bad default. Please, leave it as unread or mark it as 'E', too---but it's better to leave it as unread. -- ke@suse.de (work) / keichwa@gmx.net (home): | http://www.suse.de/~ke/ | ,__o Free Translation Project: | _-\_<, http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/ | (*)/'(*)
