I subscribe to several newsgroups and watch messages of interest. Altho I
have configured for the watched messages to be highlighted in red I cant
discover how to ensure that the newgroup listing in the folders window will
automatically turn red if there is an unread reply to a watched message in
that group. Sometimes the listing does turn red but not until I have
selected it. I recently changed to XP Pro - when I had Win98 I had the
behaviour I require apparently automatically. Any suggestions please?

If you go to view on the OE toolbar and select columns, you can add a flag
column.. I find that best for following threads..
