One idea I had was to copy the Message-ID and have a way to open
Evolution sp that it does directly search for the Message-ID. Ideally I
should be able to automate this a bit and don't have to search the mail
header for the Message-ID manually, etc.

I saw similar scripts for Mutt with ToDo.txt and Gnus with Emacs org-
mode, if I remember correctly.

In my setup, all mails are stored locally in a Maildir, synced with
mbsync.

Cheers,
Björn
