Wouldn't it also require saving state on a grand scale? (whole messages)

Saving state on message ids for 24 hours (per id) is fine. I even have
such a filter on my own personal mail system which saves a few k of ids.
Saving addresses and subjects also is fine, if only for 24 hours. But
saving whole messages for just 24 hours can take up considerable space.
