I am uncertain about how to make this work nicely,
but here are a couple options.
i. allow marking a msg for "return to here when folder reopens".
While this requires prescience, it is still a good solution I think.
ii. allow a folder option: open with first new msg, or open with last
read msg.  Since I use quite a few folders for archiving, I would choose
the latter for these.  The problem is that I often receive mail that
requires me to look at past msgs, so I think I would still need to be
able to use i. as well. 

Thanks for thinking about this, because something along this line
would be very helpful.

Alan
