You could have a convention of using user-defined labels for messages to 
indicate that someone is taking care of it (which is what I am assuming 
you are interested in for the Seen flags).  If this is for something 
like help desk support, you can make it work (I did at a previous job), 
but setting up a real ticket system isn't that hard and is a lot easier 
to use.
