Status bar messages need to go away when action has completed

1999090208 Win32 build

Here is just one example:
1) Start Messenger
2) Open a folder
3) Look at the status bar area in the Messenger window.
4) It reads Opening folder....
5) The folder has been completely loaded.  Look at the status bar area.

Actual Results:  The status "Opening folder...." remainds
Expected Results:  The status should go away or be replaced with something else
so that the user knows that the action has completed.

netlib used to do this - I guess we have to now.

I fixed this by putting up Document: Done if the url state is set to not
running. I also had to change SetUrlState to block the imap thead so that the
running url doesn't get freed before we get a chance to look at it.

Status bar message shows "Document Done" when loading is completed.
