Thanks so much! Your hint on Ctrl+h in OE is great! It worked.
Now one of the problems remaining is how to show all the messages in a
thread into a nicely presented flattened/tree-structured view?
All the newsreaders I've tried need mouse click to click on each of the
messages on the thread and expand them manually.
Also, I would like to know if there is a way to present all the
messages/threads I post/replied unified together discarding their
newsgroups... Otherwise I have to visit each newsgroup one by one to view my
posts...
