Summary: Build 208 - MAPI COM function Update doesn't have any effect

Initial Comment:
I'm trying to change the subject of an email with the
MAPI com interface to Outlook:

from win32com.client import Dispatch

s = Dispatch("Mapi.Session")
s.Logon("Outlook")
for folder in s.Inbox.Folders:
    if folder.Name == 'Test':
        for msg in folder.Messages:
            print "Changing subject of %s" % msg.Subject
            msg.Subject = 'Blabla'
            print "New subject = %s" % msg.Subject
            msg.Update()

But the code does not work. The subject is not changed.
It seems like msg.Subject = 'Blabla' has no effect.

The same code logic works with Matlab or Visual Basic.
