1  MARK
   The MARK command sets a flag in the message header that
   identifies the current message or message-identification number
   as marked. Marked messages have an asterisk (*) in the left
   column of the directory listing. A marked message can serve as
   a reminder of important information. The /ALL qualifier sets all
   currently selected messages as marked.

   The UNMARK command clears the flag in the message header and
   unmarks the current message or message-id number; that is, the
   asterisk is deleted.

2  Parameter
 

message-number

   If you specify a number greater than the number of messages in
   the folder, Mail marks the last message in the folder.
 

2  Qualifier
 

/ALL

   Sets all currently selected messages as marked.
