John,
I've read in the previews for OS 10.4 Tiger that the new Apple Mail will use an individual file format for mail messages, rather than the mbox format that it currently uses. If so, you could then conceivably bookmark individual messages with a reference something like <file:///Users/john/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Drafts/individualMessageID>.
You can open (or bookmark) any browser-readable file with this syntax already, but for Apple Mail you'd need to be able to reference a single message, which I don't think is possible without deeper exploration. There *are* email clients that keep messages as separate files, so this should work with one of those (like GyazMail <http://gyazsquare.com/gyazmail/>).
Hope this helps.
Rick
That's not really what I want to do. Like most people, I suspect, I have my bookmarks organized in categories that I use. I also have important email messages that I have kept, some of which relate to the same areas as my bookmarks. I was just thinking that it would be nice to be able to include individual email messages in my bookmarks, so that I could open email messages in addition to opening web pages.

Hi John,
You can just drag bookmarks from Safari into a mail message, but that's just the address, not the title. Is that enough?
This is something I use occasionally - I don't remember where I got it from. Add the following as a bookmark to Safari; selecting it will open a new mail containing the current address.
javascript:location.href='mailto:?SUBJECT='+document.title+%0A%20%20'&BODY=%3C'+escape(location.href)+'%3E'
Regards, Stephen

This is something I should know the answer to. Is there a way to add a bookmark in Safari's bookmarks to an email message?
