Bug Description
rev 1209
I inadvertently hit 'O' in a regular folder (not imap) and now can't save the changes I made. When I hit 'S', I get:
This is currently available only for imap folders.

Hi John, my usual prescription is that when things go wrong like this,
the folder should not be saved. The disk copy would be fine on its
own, and you don't want to overwrite it.
One possible recovery option is to go back to the message that is
supposedly unloaded, and type 'o' to make it "loaded" again. That
might reset its state.
But I will take a look at the general problem in detail in any case.
Cheers,
Uday
