I have seen outgoing messages that are UNSENT showing as UNREAD. Changing the status to sent with a script (see below) causes them to no longer show as unread. But items that have actually been sent showing as bold, I have not seen. (This occurs for me in the case of messages I write, and then decide not to send but still want to retain; you know the kind of message that expresses your feelings so very clearly, but which isn't very diplomatic. ;-))

tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
    set currentMessages to the current messages
   repeat with theMsg in the currentMessages
       my ProcessMsg(theMsg)
    end repeat
end tell

on ProcessMsg(theMsg)
    tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
        if class of theMsg is outgoing message then
           if delivery status of theMsg is sent then
               set the delivery status of theMsg to unsent
           else if delivery status of theMsg is unsent then
               set the delivery status of theMsg to sent
           end if
       else
           set theSub to subject of theMsg
           display dialog "\"" & theSub & "\" is not an outgoing message" buttons {"Continue", "Cancel"}
        end if
   end tell
end ProcessMsg
