Hi, Everybody!

It seems that one of the most dificult things about Notes programing is how
to get the unread documents in a database or view.

After some research I found out that Notes keeps a table that lists all the
unread documents NotesID's in a database. It seems to me that table is kept
in a file named DESKTOP.DSK (or DESKTOP5.DSK, DESKTOP6.DSK and so on). That
file is placed inside Notes installation folder and can not be queried like
an usual Notes db.

So, once the unread mark table is kept in each local machine, the read/unread
status depends on the user, the machine used to read the messages and on the
message itself.

It seems pretty confusing to me and I believe many people will agree. 

Even though I've searched a lot, I could not find a way to get the read/unread
programatically, except by using C/C++ API functions and LotusScript.

I believe that it would be possible to write a JNI class to wrap those funtions
and use them with Java, but I really don't like the approach. So, now I've got
stuck on that point and can not go ahead with my own project.

I'd like to hear what any of you have to say about that point. Does anybody
know if I'm right or wrong on what I've said above? Is there any good way to
get read/unread marks with Java?

Any ideas at all???
