ok...

i think that's where you messed up... what happens if you jump back to 50 before quitting?

JAM has two read pointers... lastread and highread... here's how they work...

1. you start at 50; lastread is 50;  highread is 50.
2. you jump to 100; lastread is 100; highread is 100.
3. you jump to 50;  lastread is 50;  highread is 100.

if you quit at #1, you're ok.
if you quit at #2, you miss 50 messages.
if you quit at #3, you're ok.

do you see how it works, now?
that's how it is supposed to work...
