4.1 Unread ‘U

With the following configuration, messages are marked with the unread mark ‘U’ when scanning the messages.

 
(setq mew-use-unread-mark t)

When you read a message with ‘SPC’, ‘n’, or ‘p’ and etc, the ‘U’ mark disappears.

These three commands read through messages marked with the ‘*’ mark, the ‘U’ mark, and non-marked messages. If you type ‘zSPC’, they read through messages marked with the ‘*’ mark and the ‘U’ mark only. This is convenient to read through unread messages. Typing ‘zSPC’ again gets the target messages back.

When you move onto the current message by putting a mark on the previous message, the ‘U’ mark is deleted. It's sure that you want to read the current message if you move onto it by ‘SPC’, ‘n’, and ‘p’. However, you might not intend to read the current message when you move onto it by putting a mark. If this is the case, this spec is inconvenient for you. If you want to retain the unread mark on the current message when you move onto it by putting a mark on the previous message, configure as follows:

 
(setq mew-delete-unread-mark-by-mark nil)

The followings are summary of commands related to the ‘U’ mark.

zSPC

Toggle the target of ‘SPC’, ‘n’, and ‘p’. Toggling means change one to the other out of “the ‘U’ mark, the ‘*’ mark, and non-mark” and “the ‘U’ mark and the ‘*’ mark”.

M-u

Put the ‘U’ mark to the current message.
