separate message.

Hm.  A quick code inspection suggests to me that things like sortm and
folder -pack should preserve sequence membership.  Really, anything that
uses copy_msg_flags() should.

sortm and folder -pack do indeed, for me at least under nmh-1.6-RC2 [,
preserve sequence membership. But, I fervently believe that they didn't a few
months ago. Maybe, it's a fix that got introduced with nmh-1.6 ?
