Note:This was originally posted to the wrong group. Here is the question
followed by an MVP's suggestion:
This concerns a problem I'm having moving from OE6 to Windows Mail
newsgroups.
Actually the two are almost identical with one little quirk that really
bothers me. I subscribe to many newsgroups and may be "watching"
conversations in 5 or 6 different groups at any one time. In the pane at
the left where each newsgroup is listed both readers turn the newsgroup red
that has unread "watched" messages in it. This is great because I wouldn't
remember each group on my own. A MAJOR DIFFERENCE is this. In OE6 the
newsgroup name will stay red if there are ANY unread messages in a watched
group. In Windows Mail once you open up that group it will no longer be red
even if you did not read any messages. It's a little thing but it's driving
me nuts!

Bob;
I don't see that.
For me, the group remains red until I read all messages.
Double check your settings, something is probably wrong.
Perhaps a setting that removed the red if the group is opened.
Otherwise ask in the "microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail" newsgroup.
Someone there will probably have the solution.
