I love the new threaded view in Panther's mail.app, but there is one particularly annoying "feature:"

Every time you restart the program it forgets the open/closed status of your threads, and it defaults to all-closed.

Is there any way for it to remember how you left things, or just default to all-open?

The menu commands to do this are too cumbersome, and don't have keyboard equivalents.

Clues?

Thanks,

Mark

I don't think there's any way to make it remember, or default to all open, but simply pressing the right arrow will expand whatever thread you're in, and take you to the first unread message (& left arrow will collapse it)

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that shortcut.
