This one is a little complex, I suspect.

I request return receipts. At present, I just filter them to the
rcp pile and look at them by hand. But if it would be really
great if it was possible to:
	1. Look at the incoming receipt
	2. Match it up with the outgoing mail I had sent
	3. Somehow set a flag on the outgoing mail so you knew at a
	glance that it had arrived.

I think you could re-use the existing flags in elm somehow for #3
if you knew how to set them. And 1 & 2 sounds like a job for
deliver, except I RTFMed a little bit about it and had no ideas.
