Loose Catch-Up test. This is the thread to mark Watched. It is beingcomposed and sent on the TcpTrace account. Loose Catch-Up Test (2) will becomposed and sent on another account or simply done using the web forum.Before leaving those other accounts, check (e.g. using telnet or anotheraccount) to see that the bridge can see all of those messages, then send onefinal comment to the Loose Catch-Up Test (1) thread. Then check to seethat the bridge can see that last message too. Finally, do one of theSynchronize commands on the TcpTrace account to see what you get. Inparticular check to see if Synchronize All is doing an XHDR References(because of the first thread being marked Watched) and then if thatredefines what a "New message" is. If it does the "Loose Catch-Upfeechur/bug" is still present in WLMail but without the Synchronize Allworkaround. In OE Synchronize All does not do the XHDR References checkfor Watched threads. I'm not exactly sure if the bug was ever completelyfixed in OE. I think it was working better than I had seen it working inWLMail but out of habit I never really tried to use anything butSynchronize All on OE. My impression is that both the functionality andthe usability of NNTP synchronization changed in WLMail in ways that up tonow I have never bothered taking the time to fully analyse.Saturday, June 12, 2010 4:08 PM

Second message in watched thread. Expected to be seen at the expense of any preceding messages. E.g. all of Loose Catch-Up Test (2).Make sure that the bridge has this message before you try your Synchronize command on the first account.Saturday, June 12, 2010 4:35 PM

Unwatched message for other thread is still in the Outbox, since I sent it with Work Offline set (unintentionally). So this, if sent while Working Online, should cause both to be Posted. It certainly doesn't help that WLMail has gratuitously removed Work Offline from its composition windows...Saturday, June 12, 2010 5:16 PM

Another message for the watched thread (sent from the other account--while Working Online is in the main Window's Status bar.BTW No useful indicators in the WLMail composition window. More meddling in functionality that the developers were clearly clueless about.Saturday, June 12, 2010 5:38 PM
