Old Post means that you have opened that thread, presumably read it, and there have been no New Posts since you did that!


New Posts means either that there have been more posts on the thread since you last opened ir OR it is a brand new thread that you have not opened before.



Thos open and closed envelopes have been there for yonkers and yonkers



They're on all the boards, and on your My Threads

Why has the topic I posted got the Icon Old Post by it and everyone elses New Post - I'm puzzled? Could this be the reason I have not had a flood of replies????
