Summary:  Mark|As Unread does NOT change the diamond to Green and text is NOT
bolded.
This problem occurs in POP and Imap and News
1.  Prefs50.js contains 1 pop, 1 imap and 1 news server
2.  From the Inbox folder, select a message with a Read status
3.  Click on the Diamond column, "Read" disappears in the status column, meaning
that message is changed to Unread
4.  Or select Message|Mark|As Unread, result is the same as item 3.
Actual result:  Read status is changed to Unread, no green diamond and no
bold text though.
Expected result:  Diamond should be changed to Green and text should be bolded
when status is changed to Unread

Chris,

This is what I mentioned to you before.  As soon as I started putting attributes
I need for styles in my tree template, this broke.  Any ideas?

I am so deep in the template code right now I could drown :-). I think you
should reassign all these template bugs to me and I'll bang on them until they
work.

So, I tried this with something else and it worked. I think this is only failing
for a particular case.  I was giving Status a value of "" when it was unread.
When I changed Status to " " everything started working again.  So, I'm going
to take this bug since I have an acceptable fix for this and it doesn't seem as
if changing attributes is a problem.  I don't know if anyone cares about this ""
case.

Sounds like this needs to be fixed for PR1, so I added a note to the Status
Whiteboard

POP/IMAP/NEWS:  Mark|As Unread changes diamond to Green. Problem is fixed.

Mac:  It constantly freezes and crashes when selecting an Inbox folder. Need to
do more testings.
