Google Groups tend to not trim the quoted text which makes following a thread a major nuisance.

That doesn't sound like a googlegroups problem as much as a rookie
poster problem... I use googlegroups but I also manually trim my
posts. Like Ramy, I too access it from different computers all over so
it makes for a really convenient universal interface and the spam is
easy enough to ignore thus far. With googlegoups though, I have to
switch the main page to display 'Topic List' and NOT leave it on
'Topic Summary' which it defaults to or else it's basically unusable.

I'm attempting to use Google Groups as easily as I can use my news
reader, but I can't find a way to do a couple of things:

Is there a way to prevent Google Groups from showing you a thread
(discussion) you don't want to see anymore?

Is there a way to hide postings I've read, or highlight postings I
haven't read?
