Aye this is definately poss. !
All you need to do is 'FLAG' the record when you reply to it.

How do you reply to messages? what triggers it?

Do you click on the message then fill out a form and send a reply to them? Is it posted as an email or to the database or what.

give us a wee bit more info.

All you need to do is add a yes/no field to your Messages table called REPLIED or something like that, its default value should be 0. When you reply to a message you need to update this to -1.

pop an update command in your page just as the reply is being posted and then youll know !!!
