This is exactly what happens when sharing message bases between two different
programs. Golded only knows where the last read pointer is as it's stored in
the .lhr file, and if you read messages in Mystic, Mystic will update those
last read pointers. Golded will then go off where Mystic put that last read
pointer, and vice versa.

I tried it once, but for the same reasoning as above, I separated all my
message bases. To each their own, though. ;)

Regards,
Nick
