Just press the asterisk key.

cool thanks

I knew about the backslash, but not the asterisk. And the latest
Thunderbird doesn't always advance to the next message when you press the
space-bar, so from somewhere in my memory I recalled that n did that as
well. So now I use n every time as it does it reliably, whereas the
space-bar only works sometimes (how I wonder as software is usually
predictable?). Are these things documented somewhere?


digital things just don't work properly....

Yeah, thats why your posts are so ****ed up.
