O - Old. This is a message that you have not finished reading.
I forget exactly how it works, I think a message changes from New to
Old when you exit the inbox without completely reading the message.
I don't think this is documented in Yarn. It might be, but
considering the number of times it comes up, I doubt it.
How did I get this info? Empirically, by using Yarn.
Let me know if you have any other questions,
bob
