Since both the "List..." menu and the "extract into current folder" were 
originally my code, I guess I'll offer my 2 Saddam Dinars.

I wrote the "extract into current folder" stuff after thinking real real hard 
about adding things to the right menu (hmmm, that was my code too, come to 
think about it) and deciding that it would be a lot of work to do it right and 
not miss any important functionality.  So, I did the extract option as a 
somewhat hackish way of sidestepping all that.

What I really wanted was to change the modularity of the message display so 
that a forwarded message would be a recursive call the same code that makes 
the buttons above a real message appear.  I imagined a frame inside the outer 
message containing the forwarded message.

Fortunately, sanity (or maybe it was real work) came over me and I never 
launched into that project.

"Extract into current folder" was a lot less work and provided the same 
functionality.
