Does anyone tell me how to stop Thunderbird from asking

user_pref("mailnews.nav_crosses_folders", 0);
(or chose 2 if you do not want to automatically go to next folder with
unread messages)

Ok, I had to add "user.js" and I selected "2" from the above. That
seems to be an improvement over the default in that when I scroll to
the bottom of a message it does not present me with the menu that
requires a response but brings up the next unread message in that
[message filter] directory. I think I can live with that. The
important thing is knowint how to make such changes. Of course I
still don't know how to find things like:
"user_pref("mailnews.nav_crosses_folders", 0);" And certainly the
nomenclature doesn't tell much?
Have a look at/install the "about:config" extension for Thunderbird. It
works just like about:config for, Firefox. You'll easily find things
like, ("mailnews.nav_crosses_folders",0);" ;-)
Thnak you for the help.
