Hi

On Design tab of the database property dialog there is a setting which says

“Do Not Mark Modified Documents as Unread”

Check this and forwarded mail will not be marked unread.

Can this be set as the default somehow. All my users have this issue…a real pain and nobody likes this as a “default” setting.

My template has this option selected already. But the mail files didn’t inherit the setting. I saw your later posting regarding the issue with the setting not replicating to the local mail replica. That’s not good…I hope this is going to be fixed in 6.51 or possibly in a possible 6.5 CF1 if they deem it important enough. I’d be happy if they could just reissue the mail template or an agent to fix it.

that property fixes the problem but there are problems for replicated mail users. The property “Do Not Mark Modified Documents as Unread” doesn’t seem to replicate down to the client when enabled on the server.

Anyone have a trick up their sleeve to make this work?

Subject: RE: that property fixes the problem but there are problems for replicated mail users

One option would be to check the setting in the template and do a Design Replace (as opposed to a Design Refresh) which tends to force these settings to be updated, though I’m not sure if this would fix the replication problem.
