T> I don't have an Unread Folder. Can you explain your set-up? Oh, Thomas, I've forgotten! When I first upgraded to the Virtual Folders version, (a brilliant innovation which idea I believe MAU had at the same time) I immediately set up a virtual folder for Unread Messages, thereby obviating the need for the Mail Ticker. Like another poster here recently, I found MTicker to be a bit distracting, but I really liked the idea of knowing when new mail came in other than by seeing the flying bat icon - that, I love. Anyway, under Folders, I think it was Create New Virtual folder, then set Folder Specific Settings. Go to the Filter tab and check Auto Refresh, and then, Use Fast Search, and then below that, Unread. I also created a Virtual Folder for 'Flagged to Respond' which collects any messages I flag which need a response (I want to 'be sure' I can see those messages easily as I have a tendency to lose track, but now the problem is that I forget to flag the messages! :) ) T> Anyway, did you check your "mark messages as read after ... seconds" T> setting? Yes. The original ebay message(s) showed as usual in the Inbox normally as read, but not in the Virtual Folder Unread, and the flying bat icon still flapped. Thank you for your help. I hope my directions helped _you_! -- Cheers, Maggie :Maggie: ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
