Hi,
Apologies upfront if this is well-known, but I searched mutt.org's FAQ
and manual, google's linux area , deja, etc. and came up completely
empty.
I'd very much like to be able to set a message's status to 'deleted',
but: without synchronizing my mailbox/folder so as to actually expunge
the message, I'd like to be able to either quit mutt or just change
folders, and have these messages' status be kept. I'm sure that
others have similarly wanted to use some method like this especially
when tracking a high-volume mailing list, where I wouldn't want to
prematurely expunge messages I've deleted, or else future replies on
the list wouldn't obviously be threaded under the ones I've read. I
could imagine using the OLD versus NEW flags to accomplish something
similar, but I'd prefer to be unanbiguous in my mind and use the
DELETE flag instead.
Thanks so much for the suggestions (just a pointer to the right
document would also be appreciated).
Take care,
Daniel
PS. Please cc me on replies as I don't subscribe. Thanks so much.
