Tab not highlighting after using URLFOR

I have created a VF page as follows in order to bypass the Recent page and go directly to a List View: 
<apex:page tabStyle="Outbound_Messages__tab" action="{!URLFOR($Action.psp_out_message__c.List, $ObjectType.psp_out_message__c)}" />
I have a VF tab named "Outbound_Massages" referencing this page.  It is working except the tab does not highlight when clicked.   Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Please try steps below.

​
These are the steps to highlight/focus Visual force tab in Salesforce:-
Step 1:-
          Open visual force page that has been linked as visual force tab.
Step 2:-
          Go to ‘Create’ section in ‘setup’ area to check out tabs and look for Visualforce tab section.
Step 3:-
          Open the tab which has been created and pick the tab name from it as shown in the screenshot below.User-added image
 
 

Step 4:-
          Put that value by appending it with “__tab” (.i.e.  tabStyle=”Agreements_Custom__tab”)
Step 5:-
          On the click event, after making these changes and saving the page, Visualforce tab will be highlighted.

Hope this helps you!
