After marking messages as read in a newsgroup, if I leave the group and

backed up SeaMonkey with MozBackup and all newsgroups came back as

Bruce, SM keeps a record of which messages you have read in each group of a
news server that you have subscribed to. For instance, for this news server,
news.mozilla.org, the file is news.mozilla.org.rc.
If a message number is missing, in a news group, that indicates to SM that
that message is unread, so the message Subject: in the Threads Pane, is
bolded. Ensure that you have not set the relevant *.rc file to be Read Only,
as that would cause SM to think you have not read any of the messages in
that group.
As you're on Windows 10, you may need to adjust your File Viewing settings,
in Windows Explorer, so you can display the files buried down in your SM
profile!
HTH
Thanks, but the issue mysteriously ended. Not sure what was up, but it's all
good now.
