I, also, would like this feature added to MailMate.

I used it to add notes in the body of messages, or to modify or add header fields. When done, clicking the "Edit" icon again saved the changes. Behind the scenes, Eudora used IMAP APPEND to upload the edited message and IMAP DELETE/EXPUNGE to delete the original message. Interoperable and very handy. I wish MailMate supported this!
