   When you say "Javascript issue", do you mean it's aborting with a JavaScript   
   error?  If so, it would be helpful to share the error you're seeing.   
      
   I have seen instances where the same message shows up multiple times in a   
   newscan for messages to me.  It doesn't happen every time for me, but I've   
   been wanting to debug that to find a fix.

   There isn't a feature to list the next 10 messages, but when you're reading a   
   message, you can press M to show the message list, which lists all messages.   
   I'm unsure how it would work to only list the next 10 (and would you then want   
   to choose one to read?) - But I'm wondering if that would be worthwhile when   
   it already lists all messages in the sub-board you're reading.   
      
   Also, there currently isn't a feature to list the thread history, but that's   
   something I've considered adding (just haven't looked into doing it).
