To ignore a conversation
In both mail and news, you can ignore, and even hide, conversations that don't interest you. A conversation is an original message and all its replies.
-
In your Inbox or newsgroup message list, select the conversation you wish to ignore, and on the Message menu, click Ignore Conversation.
If your message list's Watch/Ignore column is turned on, an ignore icon will appear next to all the messages of an ignored conversation.
- To hide ignored messages so they don't clutter up your message lists, click View, point to Current View, and then select Hide Read or Ignored Messages.
Selecting Hide Read or Ignored Messages will hide messages you have read, messages you have ignored, and messages you have both read and ignored.
Tip
- If you want to hide ignored messages, but wish to keep your read messages visible, click Hide Read or Ignored Messages as instructed above, and then click View, point to Current View, and then select Define Views. In the Define Views dialog box, click the New button. In box 1 of the View Editor, select Where the message has been read. In box 2, click the words Show/Hide and select Show messages. In box 3, give this view a name, and then click OK.
