 I didn't notice it before in the regular message bases when using them before
I started using QWK.  I have switched to just reading the bases without quick
for now since I couldn't keep track of new messages reliably the other way.  I
don't have my BBS up at the moment to test it myself.  I am really thinking it
has something to do with packing message bases as well. I notice the problem
most often when I've gone overnight/a day or two between logging in to
download QWK packets. If its been an hour or two and I log back it it seems to
remember my last read point correctly.
 This problem shows itself on whatever setups both 20forbeers and Quantum
Wormhole are using.  There was a couple other ones as well, but I don't
remember them off the top of m head.

Let me know if I can help in any way to help figure out what is causing the
issue.
