If something appears in Evolution as a clickable link, it's natural to
assume it's a URL (strictly a URI, since it pops up a mail composer).
And archived messages can certainly be referred to by URLs, in fact
that's exactly what you did. The reference given by the OP is not
usable, which is the point I was trying to make. There is no way to
convert it into the actual message URL other than by searching.
