The message itself does not indicate whether it is starred in Thunderbird, but your colleagues will be used to this (if they use stars). &nbsp;More info here:<br />

Reading that thread I do not see Apple Mail mentioned. I did read flagged = starred. So perhaps you are right. so how would I see a Thunderbird &quot;important&quot; or &quot;to do&quot; marking in Mail? It just won't show?

I am using Apple Mail on my Mac. Mainly because in syncs easily with my Iphone 4 and is searched through easily by spotlight. The only thing I find limited it its marking options. I only seem to be able to flag a message. And I wonder about this flagging. When I flag an email in an IMAP account how will it show up in Thunderbird - used by my colleague?

How will an Apple Mail flagged image show in Thunderbird

Programs written for the Apple operating systems are distinguished from software created for other operating systems in that it must be approved by Apple for use on its devices, whether it is from Apple (Final Cut, iWork, Keynote, Logic Pro and GarageBand are popular titles), or is a third party application from Parallels, Nuance, Microsoft and Amazon, among many others.

Apple Software

Thunderbird is an email, newsgroup, news feed, and chat (XMPP, IRC, Twitter) client that supports POP and IMAP and LDAP address completion. The vanilla version is not a personal information manager, although the Mozilla Lightning extension adds PIM functionality. Thunderbird can manage multiple email, newsgroup, and news feed accounts and supports multiple identities within accounts. Features such as quick search, saved search folders, advanced message filtering, message grouping, and labels help manage and find messages. Thunderbird incorporates a Bayesian spam filter, a whitelist based on the included address book, and can also understand classifications by server-based filters such as SpamAssassin. Extensions allow the addition of features.

Thunderbird

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.
