\fIAnno\fR annotates the specified messages in the named folder using
the field and body.
Annotation is optionally performed by \fIdist\fR, \fIforw\fR, and
\fIrepl\fR,
to keep track of your distribution of, forwarding of, and replies to a
message.
By using \fIanno\fR,
you can perform arbitrary annotations of your own.
Each message selected will be annotated with the lines

    field:\ date
    field:\ body

The `\-nodate' switch inhibits the date annotation,
leaving only the body annotation.
The `\-inplace' switch causes annotation to be done in place in order
to preserve links to the annotated message.

The field specified should be a valid 822-style message field name,
which means that it should consist of alphanumerics (or dashes) only.
The body specified is arbitrary text.

If a `\-component\ field' is not specified when \fIanno\fR is invoked,
\fIanno\fR will prompt the user for the name of field for the annotation.
