Observation: The current view in OE was separate between newsgroups and mail
account. In Win mail, there seems to be only one view that once selected
applies to all accounts.

That is with OE, in mail you could select 'show all messages' while in any
news account select 'hide read messages'. I got accustomed to that feel and
often used different views between news and mail accounts.

I use Hide Read Messages in news, and Show All in mail.
Works fine in my WinMail.

Perhaps my issue stems from creating a new 'define views' for "show watched
messages"
I use this to find messages I have flagged to easily find later. I had done
the same thing with OE and the new view was at the bottom of the list. Here
it is at the top of the list and it may think that it is the default action.

The toolbar list is in this order
Show Watched Messages
Show downloaded Messages
Show All messages
Hide Read or ignored messages
Hide Read Messages

Just a curious behavior that I would not expect.
