+ or = } If you have a Personal Mail Conference (and therefore
- or _ } would normally read Personal Mail in that conference),
then, when reading a general conference, you can use
the + and - keys to toggle the reading of unread
Personal Mail.
With Personal Unread Mail switched off (-), whenever
the action of pressing Return or PgDn would cause the
display of an unread Personal Message, Power-QWK
instead marks the message as read and moves on to the
next unread message. This action is repeated until
either an unread Public message is found or there are
no more unread messages in the current conference.

thread whether it has been read already or not.
Ctrl/CursorDown - Move to the next message in the current thread
whether it has been read already or not.
