Default Help re Forum Icons ###Issue solved 2011-10-08###

I think I've looked everywhere (I think) to find something that tells me what the various icons used in the forum threads mean: blue envelopes, white envelopes, one/two/three dots. I figured out myself the changes that occur to identify threads that I've read.

I thought a closed envelope meant a thread I had already read and an open one a thread with some unread posts. But some of the stickys are unread and had closed envelopes.

Is there a document somewhere that explains this stuff?

At the bottom of every sub forum page you'll find a shortlist like this:

DOH! Here I was reading FAQs and searching wherever else I thought the answer might be. And all I had to do was scroll down a bit more! Somehow I knew this would end up revealing my true intelligence!
