That's how I do it. Just less background clutter and the plus factor that you can tell which message you have read. I'm so glad that someone suggested that.

That's also my way of navigating. It eliminates the background clutter which I find distracting.

I haven't had a problem navigating. If you've left a comment, there is a green sticker on the envelope and take notice of open and closed envelopes.

"Archives" is the way to go for me. The Newsletter is pretty much useless...same old...same old. I have really tried to like the new board, but some changes are a real pain. By the way, anyone know how to bookmark?

I also have my thread display options set to "Thread Mode" so I can see a brief list of all the replies.

Good luck!

Thanks to you and to all that suggested archives. It really helps and goes much faster.
