hello

there are some inconsistencies in the 'mark' dialogs.

first, there are the fully unintuitive namings like mark->mark/unmark (for what?) but also the 'mark as read', 'mark thread as read' and 'mark all (as) read' are a bit confusing. for example. i selected all emails in a folder with ctrl-a and set them to 'mark as read' but didn't get the expected result because threads were not marked. when i select all emails, i want them all to be set. at least i'd expect that not the general case but the special case were to be selected explicitly. in other words: i'd rather expect 'mark all except of threads' (though i don't really know what this distinction is good for at all.)
