Yes, you can examine that file.  It does contain a flag showing whether or 
not the message has been read.  I deciphered most of the file a while back, 
so it is possible.

However, that file is proprietary and undocumented, so glitches could come 
up sometimes, and a change in version could cause it to break (the format 
changed from v6 to v7).
