Hi DM,

In the msg_area.grp_list.sub_list array, when should the scan_ptr and last_read
values be updated for a sub-board?  For instance, when simply reading messages
(i.e., not doing a newscan), would both of those be updated or would only
last_read be updated?  And conversely, when reading messages during a newscan,
would only the scan_ptr value be updated, or would both scan_ptr and last_read
be updated?

Also, it looks like there's a typo in the Synchronet JS documentation at
http://www.synchro.net/docs/jsobjs.html - Under the "msg_area.grp_list.sub_list
array" section, the last row in the table has "lead_read" - I believe that
should be "last_read"?
