I noticed that if I have a link to a forum topic that is not found (e.g. has been deleted), the page gives status code 200 (OK). I would like it to give a 404 status. Any suggestions?
I am running 7.5.7 on php 5.3.3.
Here is an example of the page.

from the 7.6.0 changeling:
Quote
Added server status error codes ("404 Not Found" or "401 Unauthorized") for when content doesn't exist or the link is unauthorized to that user/spider. Also added "noindex, nofollow" robot tags to those 404/401 pages.
