SYMPTOMSAll users attempting to open any unread message item in a particular public folder experience a long delay before the message is opened. CAUSEThe public folder has many server-side restriction tables (views) associated with it. Whenever a change is made to a message in a folder, or a new message created or deleted, the message must be evaluated against all the server-side restrictions so that they can be updated. Opening an unread message changes the state of the MSGFLAG_READ bit of the PR_MESSAGE_FLAGS MAPI property. Normally, each restriction is represented by a table in the database, and this table must be opened to be updated/evaluated. It is possible, however, for the information store to avoid opening the table if the client operation is simply changing the read/unread state of a message, because the server can tell (without opening the table) if the restriction involves the MSGFLAG_READ bit. RESOLUTION
Code was added to the information store to check if the restriction involves the read/unread message flags and if not, it can avoid opening the restriction table (which improves performance).
