Thank you for the quick reply.  So unfortunately I have to manually
reanalyze my email and try to remember which emails need follow up.
Perhaps this time I will store the follow-up metadata in Org Mode[^1],
which I already use extensively.  That is because I am afraid the IMAP
server might reenact this mess.

Evolution lacks Org Mode integration, right?  I may finally migrate to a
GNU Emacs mail client like Gnus.  No offense to Evolution, of course.  I
already preferred an Emacs mail client for Org Mode integration and
Emacs superior editing and key bindings.  I originally settled for a GUI
client (Evolution) only because Emacs mail clients lack full HTML
editing, but I recently found out that plain text emails are OK in my
workplace.
