We mostly don't use add_message, call notmuch new via NOTMUCH_NEW in
T050-new.sh. So I think it would mostly not hide bugs in notmuch
new. OTOH, I'm surprised the same issues with timestamps don't show up
there, if that is really the problem.

That's a harder question. Maybe? But I don't know how serious a bug it
is for actual users (who often get mail delivered in various concurrent
ways).
