Ah, ok.  Well, I also made it so you can share a maildir with other
people, and the marks can be either shared or not.  You can even share
all 'reply marks but not 'tick marks, etc., if you like.  (I probably
ought to document that...)  Symlinks are my friends: everything can be
accessed through the usual private name, even if some of it is
actually shared.

For other groups, I can't imagine how one would go about storing the
marks with the messages anyway.
