Unison Icon

Marking items as read or unread

In Messages view, all of the items in a group are considered unread until you read them, at which time they are marked read. You can mark a message or a group of messages as read if you wish to quickly catch up with a group and not see the messages the next time.

In Files, Music, or Images view, you must manually mark items as read, if you wish to not see them the next time you open the group.

To change the status of an item from read back to unread (or vice-versa), select a message or a group of messages and choose Mark As Read or Mark as Unread from the Message menu.

In Messages view, the blue "new" status circle will disappear to indicate the message as read.

In Files, Music, or Images view, the item title will gray out to indicate the message as read.

Tip: You must have Hide Read Messages selected from the View menu for your read messages to not appear when you open a group.
