PS Here's a screengrab of what I'm seeing:

Also from your screen shot, "I" would set read display to zero seconds,

Didn't know zero was an option - thanks for that.

uncheck auto expand grouped messages,

Why would I do that? I like the threads expanded by default.

select 'read all in plain text.

Yes - I'd toggled that for experimental purposes (don't ask...)

Then put the 'read next' button on the toolbar.

Is that "Next Unread"?

HTH?

Thanks Steve, Frank &... Steve! Looks like it _was_ a server-side glitch (&
me being impatient! =]) I've finally 'caught-up'.

Kind regards to you all,
