subject: Mystic QWK strange happen

Ok, so this is what I am noticing from various different BBS's when using QWK packets.  I will explain my exact process first:

I log into BBS.  I will then the first time goto Offline/QWK mail and select which areas I want it to scan for my packets.  I will then select to download the packet and complete the download.  I will select the option for mystic to update my last read pointers.

If I sign back on right away, or throughout the day and do the process of downloading again, it will create a packat with JUST what has been unread since my last download.

However, after (random? or maybe after Maintenance?) some time I will come back to download the QWK packet and ALL areas are downloading EVERY message again as if I've never read ANY of the messages in these messasge areas. Like stated before, this does not seem to be only one BBS this is happening on, but multiple BBS's I have been downloading packets from.  I am hoping someone has some input on this topic and can either advice something I am doing incorrect, or a setting / maintenance change to the Mystic systems to correct the problem.

Thanks
