What is stat in thunderbird mail program

In Thunderbird, "Stat" is a feature that allows you to view the status of a message in your inbox. When you enable Stat, Thunderbird will display a small icon next to each message in your inbox that indicates its status, such as:

• Unread: (a blue dot)
• Read: (a gray dot)
• Flagged: (a flag icon)
• Answered: (a reply icon)
• Forwarded: (a forward icon)

Stat is a useful feature because it allows you to quickly scan your inbox and see which messages require your attention. You can enable Stat by following these steps:

1. Open Thunderbird and go to the "View" menu.
2. Select "Layout" from the drop-down menu.
3. In the "Layout" window, scroll down to the "Display" section.
4. Check the box next to "Show message status" (Stat).
5. Click "OK" to save your changes.

Once you've enabled Stat, you'll see the status icons next to each message in your inbox. You can also customize the appearance of the Stat icons by going to "Tools" > "Options" > "Display" and adjusting the "Message status" settings.
