In the source file bmutil.c :

#ifdef USERLOG

/*get the last message listed/read
  *from the areaname.USR file
  *keeps track for each user.
  *February '92, WG7J
  */
void getlastread(m)
...
void setlastread(m)
....
static void resetlastread(m)

#endif /* USERLOG */

Introduced back in 1992, 10 years at least before JNOS 2.0 came around.

NOTE : it says area name, not a particular users mailbox.
