I am using Epoch 4.0p1 under the Solbourne X Window System window manager
(OPENLOOK).  I would like to be able to iconize individual Epoch screens,
but whenever I try to iconize just one using 'C-z i', all of the Epoch screens
get iconized. Is there a way to make this work?

Yes.  There is.  I have the following in my .swmrc file:

swm*epoch*randomPlacement:	True
swm*epoch*ignorePPosition:	True
swm*epoch*ignoreGroupHints:	True
swm*epoch*virtual:		False
swm*Minibuf*decoration:		none
swm*Minibuf*sticky:		True

and the following in my .Xdefaults file
swm*configuration:	OpenLook3d+ ~/.swmrc

The important one of these is the ignoreGroupHints.  This tells swm
not to treat all the epoch windows as a group.
