The ignore threads function doesn't make much sense, when TB keeps counting the new mails and display it on the folder. Then I think there are new mails in my Mailinglist, but I cant see any because they come from an ignored thread. New Mails in ignored threads shouldn't be counted.

You can use a filter to Mark as Read the ignored messages, this way Thunderbird won't count this messages.
