In the full header of a message, the Status sometimes shows 'R' or 'O' or
'RO'. I am assuming that the 'R' means Read but what does the 'O' mean?

Status: RO
X-Status: A

It means Old: the message was there the last time that you opened the
folder and you did not delete it and expunge it from the folder. In
IMAPSTATUS those messages are marked by a blank space if they have a "R",
and marked with a "U" if there's no "R".
