Greetings.

I read or post to threads in a lot of different groups. Most news
clients allow you to "watch" a thread so that it will be conspicuously
marked when you visit the group containing it. But you still need to
remember to visit each of those groups individually to check your
watched threads for new posts.

Are there any news clients where I can read *all* my watched threads,
across all groups, in a single virtual folder?

Regards,
Tristan

your client can do that. make a search for watched threads on your
server, than save it as a search folder.

What are the particulars of the filter?

I wasn't aware of Thunderbird (the OP's UA) being able to do this, so I
went and looked, and I don't see a way to filter based on a status of
watched.

Please elaborate on what you're suggesting.

actually you need a plugin i installed some time ago to do that. you may
use it, not the op, as it wasn't updated, sorry.

https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/quickfilter-watched-threads/

this adds a "watched thread" item to the list of fields you can filter.

Thank you. I'll have to check that out.

Ah, too bad about that. You're right that the add-on doesn't work with
recent versions of Thunderbird.

It's already been done, in a manner of speaking. The add-on doesn't
work with newer versions of Thunderbird because the new WebExtension API
exposes no method for filtering messages. A feature request for this
functionality has been filed on the Mozilla Bugzilla:
