I know that this is off this thread, but there is another approach to this
whole problem that I find a lot more pleasant (and have used for years):

I have rmm aliased to be a "refile $@ +junk".  in addition to making
unrmm mostly moot (since it is just a simple refile in the other
direction), it also has the nice effect that you can *scan* the stuff,
so if you did "rmm cur-last" and you suddenly realized that you wanted
to save one message, just "scan +junk" then a "refile <> +inbox" and
you're done.  Even works for replying: when I'm on a roll throwing mail
away, if I miss one an doverzealously rmm it when I want to repl ro
forw it, I can - don't even have to mess around "unrmm"ing it --just
"repl last +junk" works like a charm).  Having your deleted messages
ina proper folder means that you can use all of the usual MH tools and
tricks on them.

The only other hook in this whole mess was that I have a hack in my logout
script that rmf's junk.  But that's no more bletcherous than having to have a
hack that removes "comma" files.
