This is a name change, right? If you’re doing a name change, AdminP will eventually correct the unread marks.

How do we go about with the setting in AdminP to correct the unread marks? Thanks for ur replies.

In the “Rename Person” document in the Domino Administrator help database, we see the following information:

You can rename a user with the Administration Process by choosing People - Rename from the tools pane of the Domino Administrator. The following flowchart shows the sequence of Administration Process requests that occur when you rename a person in the Domino Directory. (Boxes represent requests.) The timing shown for each request is the default, which you can customize through the Server Tasks - Administration Process section of the Server document.

As you see in the above graphic, there is an entry for “Rename Person in Unread Lists”. This is actually triggered from the “Rename Person in Domino Directory” event as part of the AdminP request that you would see titled “Initiate Rename in Domino Directory”. This is what will update the Read/Unread marks in each database for that person.

Hope this helps!

Thank u so much for ur reply. It does help.

But my situation is like this, i edit the person profile and add an additional username for him e.g nankeen lily, nankeen ( 2 usernames). But when i use his id to login to his account, i discover that all the email in inbox becomes red(unread). Why does it happen like that? Is it normal in Lotus?
