I’ve got a lot of feeds to get through each night to keep on top of things that are happening in the .NET work. When I am short on time I tend to mark-as-read some of the non-technology feeds that I subscribe to to get rid of the noise.

To make that a quick process I would like to be able to run down through the list of folders that NewsGator generates in Outlook and if I don’t spot anything I am interested in just press CTRL-Q and mark the entire folder (and sub-folders as read).

The frustraiting thing is that at the moment when you select a folder the focus is left on the folder level, but a message in the folder is selected, so pressing CTRL-Q just affects that message, so you can’t even press CTRL-A followed by CTRL-Q without first tabbing to the right UI element first.
