+## Layered styles
+Some styles, (currently only the `msglist\*` ones) are applied in layers. If
+a style differs from the base (in this case `msglist_default`) then that style
+applies, unless overridden by a higher layer. The order that `msglist` styles
+are applied in is, from first to last:
+
+```
+msglist_default
+msglist_unread
+msglist_read
+msglist_flagged
+msglist_deleted
+msglist_marked
+```
+
+So, the marked style will override all other msglist styles.
