You'll need the patches from

  http://home.uchicago.edu/~dgc/mutt

for 1.2.5 (but you should AT LEAST get 1.2.5.1 since you're going to be
compiling anyway or, since 1.4 is *almost* out, just get 1.3.99 and get
current); as an added bonus, the basic X-Label: functionality is stock
in 1.3.x (though there's an extension patch necessary for both 1.2.x
and 1.3.x at the site if you want more functionality).

 % Hmm, it's sort of a long story, but basically I had

 Heh.  That's a never-ending project :-)

 % through my notes.

 If you simply take note of the message folder then you could put any
 reminders you want in the X-Label: field (ahem, assuming you use mutt
 instead of the ATT Message Center) and search within that folder for
 the message(s).  I note contributed patches, say, as contrib patch
 so any time I want to see the patches that have been tossed into the
 mix I can limit on that string using ~y.
