Does that mean you now understand the question? By way of example, there is
no Unflagged status, there is only a Flagged status. To find items which are
not Flagged, we would look for [Status Is Not Flagged]. The same is not true
of Read/Unread. There is a Read status, of which we could enquire [Status Is
Read] as well as [Status Is Not Read]. Fine so far. But I am asking
therefore why is there a separate Status for Unread, for which we can
enquire [Status Is Not Unread] or [Status Is Unread]. It seems redundant. If
it is not, I would like to know what the difference is.
