First time: Select a newsgroup doesn't automatically display the messages Win32 5/24 build Mac 5/24 build Have not tried Linux yet 1) Start Messenger 2) Select a newsgroup - one that you've never viewed in 5.0 before 3) The thread pane is blank. User must manually click Get Messages to populate the thread pane with postings. I realize this feature may not be implemented yet. I'm logging a bug so that I have a bug number to refer to when I ask verah to document that the user must manually click Get Messages to display postings in the thread pane.

wouldn't hurt to fix this for m8 now that the tree control scales better, but move to m9 if you want.
