In my case, yes it does remember me. It logs me in automatically each time I visit. The problem is that there seems to be a timeout period of maybe 10 minutes before all new messages are no longer highlighted. For example, at first connecting, I see all new messages highlighted, if I spend more than a few minutes replying to one message and then go back, all the highlighting is removed as though I have read the postings. I can still look at the date/time to see what is new but it's nice when it tells me automatically.
