Try this:

        tell application "PowerMail"
                set MyMessage to current messages
                repeat with i in MyMessage
                        set TheStatus to (status of i)
                        if TheStatus is read then
                                        try
                                        set (status of i) to sent
                                        end try
                                end if
                end repeat
        end tell

I tried to test this, but the best I could do was set sent messages to
draft, and draft to sent. There is something special about messages and
how PowerMail determines what has been read and not read, draft and sent,
etc. And it doesn't seem to want to let you pick a status randomly.
