That's a neat trick.

Almost right, it's not set to epoch, but it's missing completely so mutt
has no other chance than assuming epoch. Furthermore, mutt was treating
the messages written out by <write-fcc> as postponed messages, not as
actual Fcc messages. This is fixed in changeset 5942:bd0828adede8.
So above trick should do using hg tip version of mutt.
