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
