Because I frequently archive out e-mails to other mailboxes, I cannot rely on
the group/article-no format of the current Gnus e-mail links used by org.el.
So, I've written code that can find a message based solely on its Message-ID.
The only requirement is that the message must be in an nnml mailbox somewhere,
and not in mbox format or something else.

(provide 'org-nnml)

Note that John is running an intermediate version with a small fix 
needed
to make this work.  Wait for 5.08 before trying this...
