Each time Thunderbird checks the RSS feed sources, it downloads again all the articles I have already downloaded, even if marked as read or deleted already. This makes the RSS feed reader almost useless. It didn't happen with older releases. I already tried deleting the index files of the folders, deleting&readding the feeds... suggestions ?

seems that simply destroying and creating a new RSS account fixes the problem for me...
