I have made that suggestion, though I doubt I'm the only one to have
done so.  You've other options to deal with things once you're done, as
well:

      * Use the hide read messages function.  It'll hide what's been
        marked as read, now.  As you progress through the list, messages
        you've read aren't hidden *as* you read them (that's a major
        pain, and I've another client that did that, making it very
        difficult to refer back to another post).
      * Delete the trash more often (manually or automatically).
      * Expunge the folder you're reading.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
