The X-Label: header is regonized for this purpose. %y expands it in the
index view, if you like, and ~y searches on it. It's supported in the
1.3 series, but you need a patch for 1.2.
The basic support in 1.3 only provides recognition of the header, not
editing. (You edit it using edit-message.) Another patch provides a
binding (edit-label, 'y') to edit the header within mutt, with no
external editor. I find this much easier to use, personally.
All patches are at
