Does anyone know if you can write a custom action DLL using VB and not C++?

As far as I know they have to be written in unmanaged C++.

OK. Do you know if it is possible to flip the READ status of an incoming
message to UNREAD if it is marked READ?

Item.Unread is read/write but you have to change it at a point when nothing
else is accessing it or you get conflict errors.

Yeah, that makes sense. I think I need to find C++ programmer who has
experience in this who could write something...
