In your original case, you're only marking unread things as read, so if you have additional messages tagged before executing it, it's a null operation (you mark an unread message as unread). In the deletion case, if you have other messages tagged before running it, you'll delete those too. So I'd be more careful with this one. I think you want <delete-message> instead of <d>, and I'm not sure what the trailing "n" is supposed to be doing (do you have some delete-confirmation in place?) But otherwise, it looks sane. -tkc --
