Quick Views- can "all news" be excluded from it?

I see where things can be added to Quick Views, but the "all news" item is
grayed out and not uncheckable. I'd like to remove it, since I have a high
number of unread news items, and when Quick Views needs to recount them
(e.g. whenever the program does self-maintenance) my machine's CPU is
crippled for a very long time.

Just a suggestion: right click " All new ", click '" Mark as read ", BEFORE
you exit the window.

To the best of my knowledge the all news cannot be removed from the quick
views. Though you can turn off the quick views in the layout menu and then
just read your new messages in each newsgroup or email account. Myself I
have it turned off and have added the Next Unread item to the menu bar.
Then once I've read all the new messages in either an email account, or a
newsgroup, I'm asked if I'd like to move to the next message folder with
unread messages. If you've read all the messages you want to read in an
area, you can mark the remaining unread messages as read by using the
keyboard shortcut CTRL-SHIFT-A.

I did that, thanks. It's no longer visible in the UI. But I was later
horrified to see that Quick Views *still does its thing anyway*! It's the
beast which cannot be stopped.

Which version do you have 12 or 14 ? I right clicked a lot of times on " all
new ", and click Mark as read.

Re: Quick Views- can "all news" be excluded from it?

I have the latest 14. Yes, I'm sure it could be stopped if you make a point
to mark things as read, but I don't. I definitely expected, though, when it
was no longer available in the UI that it wouldn't update. After a recent
restart, however, I noticed my CPU very active after staring the program.
Toggling QV on showed that it was incrementing again from the beginning.
That it was starting over was surprising, since the last time I closed the
program, message compaction didn't take place (I've found before that when
it does, QV needs to start from scratch).

Re: Quick Views- can "all news" be excluded from it?

Quick View options are display related and only indicate something existing elsewhere. Enabling/Disabling QV items doesn't modify
incoming/outgoing settings or activity.

This is one of the reasons I won't use WLM in its newsgroup mode.
I use Windows Mail for newsgroups.
