But the old threads that have a new message added to them will pop up to the top of the list -- so always the threads at the top will be ones that have the newer posts added. Once we get into this system and are more familiar with it and browse around a bit we'll be able to use the little dots that show us unread messages but at first all messages appear as unread. :( Joan
