No, I just use the label to keep notes for myself. When I see something
interesting, I set the label accordingly (URL, config, cool hack,
contrib, ...) to explain why I've left this message in the folder (most
often mutt-users, in fact :-) Then my index_format looks like
set index_format="%4C %Z%?y?@& ? %{%b %d} %-15.15L %?M?>#%03M<&(%4l)? %s"'
so that I get a '@' char between the status flags and date on a message
that has a label defined, like

(yeah, I need to catch up on my mutt-users mail). Hmmm... I should see
what else you wrote, too :-) I don't have the X-Label: header weeded
out, so I see it when I open the email, and I can of course search or
limit on it as well.
I use David Champion's xlabel extensions, too. See his web page or my
patch cocktail page for the patch.
% labels? Like in Eudora?
I dunno from how Eudora does it, though.
