I didn't think timestamp was updated every time you see a message from someone, just when the record is modified. This one would explicitly say "I saw a message from you on YYYY-MM-DD" and leave timestamp unchanged because it's not a true data change. >> Then you can filter all the records with last-seen over 2 years ago, >> for instance.

I think it may be nice to have an integer friend-level field that could, for instance, range from 10000 (has my DNA) to 0 (eh) and down to -10000 (would kill on sight). This could be used to score discussion threads in Gnus, for instance, and to do the "I want to know about this person" filter you want.
