Discussion:
[VM] setting high priority for a message

Dear VM users,

I read my email at times with a web-based interface (roundcube)
and at times with VM in emacs. In roundcube I can "flag" a message,
and I noticed that flagged messages are shown in VM using the face:

vm-summary-high-priority-face

However, I did not find a way to flag or unflag a message in the same
way in VM. Is this functionality missing? I could not find any mention
of it in the documentation.

I noticed that it is not one of the standard attributes. The example
X-VM-v5-Data: ([nil nil nil nil t nil nil nil nil]
("\\flagged"))
The "\\flagged" value is what seems to trigger the high-priority face.

vm-8.2.0b, available on Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/vm), has a function
called `vm-toggle-flag-message' bound to `!'.

I am not sure of the older versions.

Cheers,

This explains. I was using version 8.1.2, and vm-toggle-flag-message
is not available in that version.

Thanks,
