>Yes, they were more because, for most of them, they never tried the new mode. For that purpose, we are trying to ease the transition. I think the idea expressed in my other reply would fit that need. The secondary forum set definition with another button to retrieve new messages for the other forums could do.
Hi Michel
you can put various forums into various pages of a pageframe like control,
On the Caption of any pages you can put the count of the new messages,
and download them only when the user click on the forum page's tab.
