I am still confused … the table stores “archive” state per “group”…

So if you are in both groups it would be full archived for both groups. And I guess the reverse has to hold… if you unarchive it it would be fully unarchived for both groups.

So:

Archive == “archive message for all groups I belong to”  
Unarchive == “unarchive message for all groups I belong to”
