Is there a way to remove (set it to none) the background color applied to messages (mails) descriptors thru the button [Colors]

Hey Yvan,

# This works:
tell application "Mail"
set mList to (get selection)
repeat with i in mList
set background color of i to none
end repeat
end tell

# none
# blue
# gray
# green
# orange
# purple
# red
# yellow

# This fails:
tell application "Mail"
set background color of (messages of inbox) to red
end tell

Thanks Christopher

You opened the door. There is no need to select the items.

tell application "Mail"

set mList to every message of mailbox "Batiactu/maison a part"

set origColors to {}

repeat with i in mList

set end of origColors to (get background color of i)

set background color of i to none

end repeat

end tell

origColors

Did the trick although the mailbox wasn't the displayed one.

It's just puzzling to see that origColors was reported as :

{none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none, none}

When 15 descriptors had a red background.

So I must do the job by hand because my goal was to remove backgrounds except the red ones.
