I'd like it a lot if searches could be saved and search results could be
automatically updated as new mail arrives.
That is, I'd like to be able to save a search called "sup-talk" with
query to:sup-talk at rubyforge.org. That saved search would look like a
sup-talk folder. It'd be just like the usual search results, only new
mails matching its query would become visible in it automatically. I
guess a new screen would be needed to show the saved searches and the
number of unread messages in each.
I think Opera's M2 is a little like that.

This is a good idea, and saving searches and reusing them will be easy.
Unfortunately it will be tricky to have search results updated
automatically (at least in the general case where they can involve
subject or body text) because it will require some way of determining
whether an in-memory message matches a Ferret query, which Ferret may or
may not support. I'll look into it. I would like to have this feature,
and in the worst case you will have to manually refresh.
