What if you received the item from a mailing list? You (your email
address corresponding to the "me" identity) is nowhere to be found in
any of these fields. Should the item not be In then?
There's a third category missing in your discussion. Seems like emails
can end up being neither in nor out. If it's not the case (and we have
only in and out), then the logic is more simple: the "out" determination
is fairly simple (you are in the From field). For the rest, if it's not
out, then it's in.
I also don't see the semantic difference between "first time" and
"update" that justify having 2 different logics. After all, the "update"
could be a complete rewrite and look like a "first time". If you and me
were to share a collection, why would an email (not sent to me) be "out"
but the same message (with the same recipient data) be "in" if it was an
update of an existing one? I fail to see the reason of having this extra
logic.
