Seems like the best thing to keep is (a) which message is selected, and (b) which message is currently the topmost visible in the window. Then you would scroll to (b) on returning to the folder, and altough it might scroll to somewhere different from the original place, it'll always at least have something to do with which messages were displayed before, no matter what scroll position they end up as.
