Just in case this saves you some time, let me tell you how I use my
newsreader.

When I first open it it's not set to download any new headers, I click
on that manually.

Then I see any new threads, threads with new messages and new messages
in those threads (if expanded or when I expand them) marked in red.

If I see a reply from you, Spike, crazy-dave and a few others I
typically don't open them (especially when I know you are likely to be
spouting more trolling bollox), just reading the normals and for a
laugh, the Squeaker Goblin and Turnip etc.

IOW, you don't like your *claims* being countered by *facts*. This
thread has contained good examples of that.
