It's in the 3rd option in that group.

Since you have over 300 feeds, I think you'll really like FeedDemon - it's what I use for dealing with over 700 feeds and is the best product I've found for high volume feed reading. The free trial is at http://www.newsgator.com/NGOLProduct.aspx?ProdID=FeedDemon and since you've already set up NewsGator Online, it syncs with your NewsGator data and you won't have to import your OPML file again.

I've already set up a News Watch to mark anything called "links" as read, since those are invariably things I skip.

What I'm looking for is a way to mark-as-read items in a specific category from a specific feed. I see GreatNews has almost all this capability, but the only search options are the Title, Author, URL or Content. I'd also like to test against category, but I see how that could be difficult, since "category" is defined several ways in the RSS and Atom specifications.

Speaking of which, where are the categories?
