Why don't people read their messages? BEFORE I subscribed to GR I got messages from people who'd found the tree I started but I couldn't reply or look at their trees. I expect some people don't check their emails, or are ill, or on holiday or have changed their address as mentioned. |

Thank-you for making sense of this. You would think that the technical support staff would know about this upgrade - I had actually contacted them twice! |

Yes, that's right, a purple envelope has not been opened (i.e. read). |

I think it has only been possible to see whether a message has been read since the last lot of alterations to the site....they probably forgot to update their information |

As far as I can see when a message has been opened by the person you sent it to then its white, and as you say if there has been a reply to you then there is an arrow as well. If unread or unopened then the envelope is still purple. |

When I look in my 'sent messages' envelopes appear next to the various messages. They are purple, white or white with an arrow. |
