Thanks for this, and for pointing me in the right direction.

I've made some changes and sent a merge request your way.  It allows msglist.js to generate counts of the messages that hit the criteria (e.g. "new in last 2 days"), including for all groups that are on the system.

Typical output example:

  DOVE-Net  General                                     12
  DOVE-Net  Entertainment                                4
  DOVE-Net  Debate                                      14
  DOVE-Net  Internet Discussion                          8
  DOVE-Net  Synchronet Discussion                        9
  DOVE-Net  Synchronet Sysops Only                       6
  DOVE-Net  Synchronet Data                             28
    fsxNet  fsxNet Test Arena                            5
    fsxNet  General Chat + More..                       55
    fsxNet  Mystic BBS Support/Dev                       2

All fairly rough at this point as I find my way around the codebase.

Thanks again,

Mewcenary.
