Thanks for your suggeston, but this is not an option for me. I want it
to work ok for daily use, not for a special case where I explicitly have
to open folders in R/O mode or have to give extra commands. Mutt should
have the option to leave messages unchanged, _at least_ when opening
the folder the next time will result in the same situation anyway (i.e.,
a missing Status field is implicitly considered as "Status: O", I think).
I will check what I can do to add one or more options for this and see
how that works for me.
