Thanks Paul, I guess that macro will automatically untag "O" from all
the messages, please correct me if I am wrong.

But I have to check the "O" old state message manually to see if the
message is truly a new messageI did not read before of if the message
was read before but marked to unread state after messages
transferring.

Thank you.

Kind Regards.
