I reported it, Marcia. I think you'll find using any new reader much easier
than a web-based interface at any time. You can, for one thing, Hide Read
Messages. That means each time you read a message, you no longer need sort
through all those you've seen before.
😎 You can set also rules, with
colors for your own posts or those of other people, keep certain messages in
separate folders you create - automatically - as they come in. Lots of
things!
