SYMPTOMS

After you read an incoming e-mail message, the envelope icon may not change from a closed to an open envelope.

CAUSE

This problem was reported for messages containing attachments when your Microsoft Exchange Server uses Network Associates' Groupshield Anti-Virus software version 4.0.2.

RESOLUTION

You can still determine a message's read/unread state by noticing whether the subject is displayed in bold font (unread) or regular font (read).
