Creating an internal mailing system

[DOCH]

hi, I'm creating a asp based system and need to create an internal mailing system, can any one point me in the right direction, i have knowledge of asp, i know html and sql. basically just need it so that one person can send a little message to another. i could do this with asp but don't know how to make it so that if the message has not been read then it will be highlighted, another thing is how to have the delete button next to each message so it can be deleted
i have looked on the net and havn't found anything that will help me,
thanks

are you saying you would like to build a simple kind of forum application?

not a forum, basically i have have a load of messages in a database, when i bring them up on to the page i need a delete button next to each one like you see on some personal messaging systems.
should look like this:-

____________
|Delete button| message1: bla bla bla bla
"""""""""""""""""""""
____________
|Delete button| message2: bla bla bla bla
"""""""""""""""""""""
_________
|Delete button| message3: bla bla bla bla
"""""""""""""""""""""

so when you click that delete button on the left the messege will be deleted from the database.

hope this has made it easier to understand. Thank you.
