ita,

I have a response to this....

Click "My control panel" (it is in a bar toward the middle top after log in)

Then, look at the left hand side, you should see "View Topics" - click that and you will see each thread you subscribe to.

Bookmark this page and you can return to it from here on.

But that doesn't tell me about new messages, unless I'm missing something. If I don't keep track of the time of the last message I read, I won't know if anyone's posted since I last read.

Was someone asking about getting text out of PDFs recently? Anyway, this is cool.

Okay, my Outlook has started doing something that's really silly and minor and that I can tell already is going to drive me batshit. I use the preview window, and suddenly this afternoon it's stopped marking emails viewed in the window as read. I checked the Options tab and it looks like it should be marking them properly - and it did, up until today. Anyone got any other ideas?

Anyone got any other ideas?

I'd say close Outlook (and make sure it's not running in the system tray), then try running the Inbox Repair Tool [link] .

ita, if you subscribe to the thread, it does keep track of new messages.

I'm subscribed to two topics. When I go into controls/my topics it shows my current subscriptions and I can see when I subscribed, how many replies and views there are, and when the last post was. Short of signing up for email notifications, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

ita,

when you click on the thread link, it goes to where you left off.

are you not experiencing this?

Der. I see that now. Thanks. So it won't tell me if I have to click or not? Good thing I only care about two topics.

ita, the colors change when you have new messages. I think there may be a text indication as well.
