It's really quite simple.  I download my mail, then go offline.  I read my 
mail, and make some responses.  The outgoing mail goes to the outbox, which 
turns red as soon as the first message goes into it.  If I then change my mind 
about sending one of the messages, and delete it, then the color of the outbox 
turns back to yellow, although there are other messages waiting to be sent in it.
If I add another outgoing message, it properly turns back to red.  The color of 
the folder does not affect the program's knowledge that there is outgoing mail; it 
still gets sent upon reconnect (Send After Fetch is checked).
