  • golded, show read/unread msgs - how?

    Hi Rick!

    15 May 2020 06:59, from Rick Smith -> Richard Menedetter:

    Another question for you, is there a setting about how to handle
    dupes? I believe the reason I get a dupe for every message I compose
    in golded is because when I create a message in golded it exists in golded,

    It does not exit "in golded".
    Golded is your editor.
    It inserts a message into your messagebase.

    then gets sent to my uplink which then sends it back to my
    point so now there are two copies?

    There is something SERIOUSLY wrong with your setup, if it sends you BACK your own messages!!!

    The one I wrote originally and the one that gets sent to me. So each message I write always produces a dupe in the dupes area? Is there a setting to avoid this?

    Yes ... configure your tosser correctly.
    Golded only inserts the message, the rest is up to your tosser!
    Nothing to do with golded!

    the question is why is your BOSS node sending the message back to
    your point... it should not be doing that... your BOSS node is the
    place to fix this problem...

    Perfect do you know where that is in Mystic? I have scanned around the settings and nothing obvious jumped out at me.. I will have a look at the wiki see if there are any clues?

    It's easy. Don't use Mystic as the tosser for your node, but some software that is known to work reliable. And please use the MYSTIC area for Mystic related questions.

    Hello Richard!

    COLOR MENU UNREAD Cyan on Black ; msg is unread
    Where is the read/unread information saved?

    In the messagebase, where else?

    That color line does not change anything here - so that's the question exactly.

    Does it depend on the msgbase format? I do use squish.

    Regards

    the last read pointer determines what has been read and what hasn't...

    That's my concept of daily usage with a squish msgbase and the reason for my question. The lastread pointer is stored with a user index number in the *.sql file (not mySQL, it's squish-lastread) of the echoarea.

    If there is a read/unread flag per mail i would like to know.

    Regards

    Hi Kai!

    20 May 2020 17:24, from Kai Richter -> Richard Menedetter:

    I just changed from cyan to yellow, and all me unread messages
    were shown in yellow ;)
    I disabled all color lines but yours to go back to the defaults. My
    colors are gone but no difference for read/unread.

    I forgot that you need to set:

    HIGHLIGHTUNREAD Yes
