Can we rename messages somehow? i.e. change the Subject line?
"Edit as New" and then changing the subject, and then sending it to
myself seems a cheesy workaround.

On the menu bar, go to [File > Save As > File]. Change the name in the
Save Message As navigation window to the name you really want, and save
it to a folder for such messages. When you go to open such a file (an
.eml file), it will open in a SeaMonkey Mail-News window.
that's saving a message as a file outside of SM entirely, not renaming a
message. I'd seen that.

Geoff, how about. when you find a message you want to keep, ....
1) Click "Reply" to the message,
2) Go Off-line"
3) Edit the Subject so you know what it's about
4) Click "Send Later"
5) This stored the message in the "Outbox" of my Local Folders
6) Manually move this message into the SeaMonkey folder where you
want to store it
7) Go back on-line and continue reading.
This seems to work for me, except it appears as though I made the final
post in the saved message, when I didn't actually type anything, so my
name/email address/etc has replaced your name/email address/etc and the
message starts with "David E. Ross wrote"
Yes. I thought of similar idea, using <Edit as New>, and then <Save As
Draft>, and then moving it.
It seems to me, that a very long time ago, it never occurred to the
developers of the email system, that MOST people would be terrible at
creating the Subject line of messages....so "Change Title" was never
added to the context menus.
I mean seriously, we all have seen message subjects like "Hows it going"
and deeep in the body is "well, my wife's dad died yesterday" e.g., and
we wanna remember that, (but can understand why the orig message Subject
wasn't "Larry is DEAD!!!!").
