Seems OK for me. In the same vein, what to do if the user changes the 
flag of a deleted message? Do we change the flag or ignore? Indeed the 
deleted but unread messages are not counted in the unread messages 
count, so perhaps should we ignore all actions (but undelete) for 
deleted messages?
I plan to correct a minor problem where you can have a negative number 
of unread messages.
