As far as I can tell, "mI" does not refetch messages that have already
been retrieved. Thus you can safely mark all messages with "ma", then
use "mI" to retrieve them. I do this all the time. Before I discovered
this, I would mark just the truncated messages using "mr", giving the
regeular expression "^ T".
