RMAIL, summary buffer need not be marked as modified

[Alexander Pohoyda]

Hi again,

I have to admit that the modified *RMAIL-summary* buffer irritates
me. This buffer is generated by emacs, so there is nothing user should
care about.

The patch follows:

--- rmailsum.el.orig    Sun Jan  5 23:01:28 2003
+++ rmailsum.el Sun Jan  5 23:01:40 2003

probably a better approach would be to use a mode-line format for RMAIL
summary mode that omits the superfluous information.
