I was thinking more along the lines of archiving a message from the Inbox (or similar) view, in which the 'unread' state does remain preserved. Marking all messages as read as soon as the thread is opened is a separate issue (and *far* from sensible), but this heavy-handed approach is probably a necessity (as opposed to being a deliberate choice) due to the limitations of its current interface, which Notmuch thankfully doesn't share. > -- > Brian May <br...@microcomaustralia.com.au> > _______________________________________________ > notmuch mailing list > notmuch@notmuchmail.org > http://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch Peace -- Pieter _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org http://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
