It is an imperfect solution since I still may want to read a couple of new
messages, but delete all except for the ones I had previously wanted to
save. In thunderbird, a message does not disappear from the 'unread' view
until you move to a different folder, etc. so I am allowed to read a couple
and still be able to select all the new messages and delete them.

I do honestly believe this feature request to be useful beyond my own
reasons for wanting it.

(Not that anyone will or should care about this part)
If it was implemented, I would likely increase my usage of IMP as I like the
idea of having my mailing list messages I want to save be stored with a
service that does regular backups, etc. But, my primary e-mail app is
Thunderbird and that works just fine for me for now which is why I have no
intention of offering a bounty. Without this enhancement, there is no
compelling reason to increase my usage of IMP over Thunderbird.

But, this feature request has already been rejected and it does not appear
anyone here finds it useful, so these will be my final comments on this
matter.
