In the account preferences, on the Advanced page there is an option 'Mark
cross-posted messages as read and color ....'. Use this option to set a
colour you use for nothing else and then filter on that colour.

What do you mean by "disable operation"? The last sentence suggests that you
are talking about HTML mails with links like "<a href="...">click me</a>".
The actual URL is displayed when you hover the mouse pointer over them.
