No, there wasn't.

Is the active file the .eld file? If so, yes, there was an entry.

It could have been that. I didn't cut and paste - XEmacs doesn't
allow selecting text in the message buffer.
Anyway, I got a suggestion in mail which worked (though it lost all my
marks). And it is academic now (for me at least), as I have converted
mail.misc to a mbx archive that I've accessing via imap. (I've been
wanting to convert to imap for a while now.)
