New to Thunderbird.. My last email program (Eudora Pro) had a simple click option to flag the importance of any outgoing email.. You could mark it as Highest.. High.. Normal.. etc so the recipient knew they should open it immediately or not.. Does Thunderbird have that option? I can' seem to find it..

While composing the message, go the Write window's menu and select Options|Priority. and there you can choose a priority level.

Excellent.. thank you... Never would have found it there. Very helpful..

OK.. Next issue.. I sent myself a couple of test messages just now marked Highest Priority... when they came in they look no different than any other message.. What should I be looking for? I see no red flags or anything out of the ordinary...
