| | Welcome to the Mozilla experience.
| | mozilla.org web tools are deeply cutomizable and have a very rich
| | set of features.
| |
| | In Mozilla (may be different in tb it's been a while since I used
| | tb) go to the newsgroup account settings and look for Offline
| | and Disk Space panels.
| |
| | edit - mail & newsgps - <newsgroup account> - Offline and Disk Space
| |
| | the Off Line panel lets you select entire newsgroups to dl for off
| | line use.
| | The disk space panel has some automatic space saving features that
| | you may want to enable such as save all -delete after x days ... .
| | If you don't select save all, you can permanently save a post by
| | dragging it into a local folder or saving as ...
| |
| | I mark the posts of interest and drag them into local folders
| | subfolder.
| |
| | you can flag or label messages, then position the messages or
| | control the view to show only flagged or appropriately labeled
| | messages and manipulate them as a group.
| | You can use the message filters tools to move messages you've
| | labeled or flagged.
| |
| | Hope this helps you to enjoy mozilla.

| TB does not have offline capability unless the Offline extension is
| installed. In new releases, 0.8 included, it can be installed when
| installing the program Select a custom install, and make sure Offline
| is checked.
Doh! Cool, thanks! I'll give it another try.
