      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 2:201/137 cd64ff4d       REPLY: 1:129/215 216802cd       TZUTC: 0200       Hello g00r00!              Thank you for your reply!              On 28 Jul 2021, g00r00 said the following...        g0> When you reset your last scan date it does not reset the flag on each        g0> individual message that determines if you read it before        g0> or not. The /noread option tells Mystic to ignore messages that have        g0> been presented to you once before regardless of what your last read        g0> pointer says.              Ah, thanks -- I vaguely remember noting in the past that "new" and "read" is       not the same thing, and you confirmed this. :)              By the way, is there a way to un-read a message by editing it?               g0> Its easy to get lost in all of the options Mystic has for ways to scan.         g0> In the long run its a good thing because the scanning in Mystic is super        g0> flexible, but it can take a bit to sort through it all. Even I have              I think it's all working perfectly fine now. :)              My prelogin now consists of an e-mail scan -- to ensure that new, unread       e-mails will always be found regardless of users' message scan settings (even       though I *do* have set Private Messages to New Scan: Forced and QWK Scan:       Forced, because I think that area should always be scanned) -- and a global       personal scan.               g0> to experiment if you want to! For now just assume its only guarenteed        g0> to work in the /P scan!              Yep!              Many thanks!              Best regards       Bj”rn       --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/07/28 (Linux/64)        * Origin: Star Collision BBS, Uppsala, Sweden (2:201/137)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 30/0 80/1 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/340 123/131 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 129/305 154/10 201/0 137 203/0 124 218/700 221/0 1 6 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 428 452 550 700 981 1016 1017       SEEN-BY: 230/0 240/1120 5832 249/206 307 317 400 261/38 280/464 5003       SEEN-BY: 282/464 1038 292/854 8125 301/0 1 101 113 317/3 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 335/364 341/66 342/200 396/45 633/280 712/848 920/1 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 3634/24 5020/1042 5058/104       PATH: 201/137 0 203/0 280/464 301/1 229/426           |
