What's the fastest/easiest way to check if a particular message
is a member of a particular sequence?
I thought I'd be able to compare the message number against the output
of "mark -list", but since sequences can be abbreviated with range
notation, that gets complicated quickly. For example, message 6 is in
the sequence todo, but it's hard to tell from this:
$ mark -list -sequence todo
todo: 1 3 5-8 13 16 46 49 52-53
