I have no windows machine at hand to check with the most common mail
readers but don't have most mail clients a threaded view?

The phorum software seems to have some strange problems. I'm logged in
and have read all messages flagged as "new". But
http://news.r.tucows.com/phorum/index.php?39 still shows one message as
new, even after reloading. The forum itself doesn't flag a thread or
message as "new". Strange. The numbers of threads and posts at the
different places are also quite different and don't really add up.

NNTP-Login still doesn't work for me with Mozilla, KMail or Pan. User
"hostroute" in the forum seems to have the same problem.
