I've never seen a mail client make ignoring threads as easy as Forte
Agent did some 20 years ago.  Just press the I hotkey, and the current
message and all its siblings (now and forever), are marked to be
ignored (then they're either dimmed or hidden, according to your own
preferences).  But other responses in the thread are unaffected.

I did like how Agent worked, ignoring a thread did not erroneously mark
it as read.  To me, read means I've read it.  When "ignore" is separate
from "read" I can find unread messages if I need to.  It had nice
features for hiding old messages without deleting them, to unclutter
your display (again without erroneously marking them as read).  And for
purging even older messages from your cache, if you wanted to.  And it
was the only client I ever saw that could rewrap quotes, and quotes of
quotes, without mangling them.

I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the mailing list.
