:(it isn't lightning-fast!), just to un-tag the messages? My favorite
:way to untag all tagged messages is ";t", which means "apply the 'tag'
:command to all tagged messages". It's quick and painless. :)
I'm on a few dozen mailing lists. Even when parsed out with Procmail, I
still end up with mailboxes with hundreds of messages each. Often I
will tag lots of messages with certain subjects (usually when the thread
has become a flame fest), then do a ";d". But I'd like that action to
also untag the messages at the same time, which ";s" does.
(Yes, I'm almost too lazy to do ";t" ;-)
BTW, I noticed that if I try to ";s" to /dev/null, it fails!
