I guess I'm kind of sniping from afar here, but this kind of help is not
very useful.  You should have ended it with "Because if you do..."  or
"If you don't..."

My guess is that the original poster has a program which is checking his
mailboxes and not resetting the time stamps correctly.  I would advise
him to either stop running it or fix it.  What is your solution?

Cheers,
