>>I only want to see certain forums. No problem, got options for that. But, I do want the choice to post a message in a forum that is not on my list. I rarely want to see threads related to Excel, but right now I want to post a question in that forum. Is there a way that I'm not aware of other than to change my options, post the message and then change my options back? If not, then I would like to have different lists for the Forum dropdown for new messages and for the threads I want to see.

Why? Couldn't I just use the "Get all the replies to your messages" icon? I don't care whether I see the thread listed in the main screen.
