Here is what we would like to see happen:

When incoming.pl goes to retrieve email, it ends up with a certain number of new messages for all users (0 and above)

We would like to have the number of new email messages added in mysql table...Meaning we can add a field in users table, say 'New', and incoming.pl would write there the number of new messages it has just retrieved for that user.

When incoming.pl runs again, it adds the number of new messages now received,...

When a certain user goes to his inbox, the number of new email messages is reset to zero.

And so on....

Thanks

Frank
