I sometimes need this too.
What I do is that I set the status to something that is unused
(Menu Message->Set Status).

E.g. the status "sent" or "queued" are not used in normal folders and won't
cause problems if they are used. They have nice icons and are quite handy
for this.

Kind regards,
Stefan
