The improvements to Org allow searching for a message by its
message-id using a WL search folder.  WL currently only supports
searching with Namazu or grep.

There are two brief posts about my Namazu setup[1] and the benefit of
Namazu over mairix is, that Namazu can be used to index (almost)
everything and hence there's a single interface to my data for
full-text searches.
