One more here concurring about the headers.

This begs the question about "-search pattern", where "pattern"
is what the reader sees.  But, "pattern" could also be obfuscated
by quoted-printable or html message content.

FWIW, I scripted a multi-folder pick, which I call pickf.  If pick
is going to be altered, then being able to specify multiple folders
would be a nice feature addition, at least for me.

I guess I just suggested a boat load of work.  Sorry 'bout that.

Cheerio....
