Why is it that if I am in office mode and I have let’s say 5 unread messages and then I go to island mode and the messages that were unread are now read.
Subject: Unread to Read
Island Mode looks at your Local Replica. Office mode will look at your server replica. Unread marks between Replicas is a long standing thorn in Notes users side.
Try adding these lines to your notes.ini
Replicator_Sync_UnRead=-1
Replicator_unread_sync-1
There is an IBM document around about the Architecture of unread marks, which you might find interesting to read.
