Hi:

Currently I am posting more and more threads in the newsgroup.

Just wondering if there is anything like a watchlist of threads, so that I
don't have to search them one by one.

Thank you

wen

Wen,

I don't think so. I find Thunderbird really nice for keeping things
organized.

In case it is not obvious, in TB you can type W on a selected message to
watch that thread - a little eyeball icon shows up next to the thread to
let you know.

Hope this helps,
Eric

Eric,

I never noticed that before. What does it do?

It just keeps that thread marked with the eye icon, making it easier to
find later. The mark is persistent across TB sessions.
I tend to use it on any thread in which I post - that way I always
quickly identify replies to my posts.
