info starting with "2,": Each character after the comma is an
independent flag.
* Flag "P" (passed): the user has resent/forwarded/bounced this
message to someone else.
* Flag "R" (replied): the user has replied to this message.
* Flag "S" (seen): the user has viewed this message, though perhaps
he didn't read all the way through it.
* Flag "T" (trashed): the user has moved this message to the trash;
the trash will be emptied by a later user action.
* Flag "D" (draft): the user considers this message a draft;
toggled at user discretion.
* Flag "F" (flagged): user-defined flag; toggled at user discretion.
New flags may be defined later. Flags must be stored in ASCII order:
e.g., "2,FRS".
