A flag can be permanent or session-only on a per-flag basis.
Permanent flags are those which the client can add or remove from the
message flags permanently; that is, concurrent and subsequent
sessions will see any change in permanent flags. Changes to session
flags are valid only in that session.

\Recent
Message is "recently" arrived in this mailbox. This session
is the first session to have been notified about this
message; if the session is read-write, subsequent sessions
will not see \Recent set for this message. This flag can not
be altered by the client.

If it is not possible to determine whether or not this
session is the first session to be notified about a message,
then that message SHOULD be considered recent.

If multiple connections have the same mailbox selected
simultaneously, it is undefined which of these connections
will see newly-arrived messages with \Recent set and which
will see it without \Recent set.

Note: The \Recent system flag is a special case of a
session flag. \Recent can not be used as an argument in a
STORE or APPEND command, and thus can not be changed at
all.
