The simplest thing - all the messages now arrive unhighlighted (I view them in Outlook Express 6) and I can't tell new from old. What have I turned off/on??? It's driving me nuts!

Dunno, Guv, but go to "Tools" then "Options" (bottom of the drop-down menu) and look through the message handling there. In Agent it is settable to have read/unread messages of different colours, so there should be the same function in Outlook Distress.

tools; options; read tab. Tick box "mark message as read after diplaying for X seconds"

No, that not it is it. You said all messages are *un* highlighted - sorry!

Could still be that if X=0 Possibly

Try checking for any message rules, (Tools, Message Rules). There may be one set up to display all messages of a certain type as read.

John

Weird. There was a message rule (must be default) marking all incoming NG traffic as read.

Thanks John, good call ;o))

While I'm here, thanks for the rotary converter, (or high speed grinder etc.) which Roland dropped off for me last week. Doesn't it just whizz along. Ex Lancaster, I believe?
