Hi Richard,

Using a composite manager (here "xcompmgr"), the bunch of selected emails
appears semi-transparently and thus allows me to see through.  But I must
reckon, this is not very ergonomic.

Perhaps your own desktop environment will provide some way to enable com-
positing, and ultimately allow to see through the block.

I hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
