There should be nothing wrong with it. Are you certain that it took? (Try `:' followed by `set ?mark_old', Enter and see what it says.) > change it back to "N". I tried to use tag as you suggested above to > change all "O" messages to "N". But did not work. Please explain more > details how can I use the tag to change all "O" state to "N" state in > one go. If all messages marked old should be changed to new: * Press T (upper case T) for <tag-pattern> * At the prompt, input the pattern ~O, which matches all "old" messages, and press Enter * Press ; (semicolon) for <tag-prefix> * Press w (lower case W) for <set-flag> * Press N for new * Optionally, press $ to commit the changes to disk Done. If only some messages should have the flag changed, replace the first two steps above with manually tagging the relevant messages using "t" (lower case T). -- Michael Kjörling .. michael@xxxxxxxxxxx .. http://michael.kjorling.se * .....
