 | Hmmmm, that doesn't seem to happen on our servers. I'm guessing it may be
 | the version of IMAP you're using?
 | 
 | All our servers run on the Debian "testing" version of Washington Imap...
 | 
 | Still, I'm guessing it wouldn't be too hard to set the unread flag back on
 | the mails. Afterall, the code that generates the preview is only run through
 | if the mail is actually being previewed, so there wouldn't be any stray
 | unread flags popping up...
 | 
 | That's a little beyond my understanding of IMAP with PHP though, so if
 | anyone else cares to oblige... :)

I believe that is site dependant. I updated last night to the CVS version of 
horde and imp to get a feel for the preview patch, and it works wonders here. 
i'm still awaiting to hear feedback from the users, but all in all, it's really 
good. the preview's behaviour is, i believe, as expected - unread mails are 
previewed, and remain in that state until i open the mail in the conventional 
way, no matter if i log out or not. this works on the production server like a 
charm, but i'm running uw-imap 2002 rc5 and php 4.3.0-dev. 


Cheers, 

Rodolfo
