I don't think this would be an enhancement or that would help anyone, instead
will bring more confusion. Status of a message has a clear meaning, inventing
more illogical statuses and several slightly different but very similar icons
will confuse people: did I forward it without reading or did I forward then
marked unread? Another icon to separate these? What about the people which may
have it forwarded/unread several times? Overlay the numbers too?

If your users have a replied/forwarded message which need to get later, teach
them to use tags, or put a mark, or color it red and use sort. Trying to
reflect the history of user actions over the message is not the task of a
humble icon.

Said that, you can still disagree and consider it an enhancement and leave this
open, of course. No problem :)
