This malfunctions if there are no N(ew) messages by incorrectly setting N on the highlighted message. Note that you therefore can't run it twice in a row (unless you happen to get a new message in the interval). It will also set N on any non-N(ew) tagged messages. You should replace <toggle-new> with <clear-flag>N. I like Sven's version because it leaves the messages tagged so you can see which messages were affected, but no further action is required. The tags are cleared when you change mailboxes. -- John
