Windows Mail & Usenet

Somehow when you have all messages read it still indicates 1 message unread
in the news reader in Microsoft Mail. Anyone else run into this problem?

Re: Windows Mail & Usenet

Yep, this happens when you get a message count estimate that varies from the
actual number of messages. Delete and re-create the account (though
sometimes it takes two or three tries for everything to sync up again!) or
wait a while and the ghosts will be purged.

Yes
Right click on the news group that shows the unread message then click on
Catch Up. This has worked for me.
