Yup, AFAICS this does half of what I want, eg.: macro pager <Tab> "\ <exit><mark-message>last<enter><next-unread><display-message>\ " "jump to next unread and remember last" macro pager ,l "\ <exit><enter-command>push \\'last<enter><display-message>\ " "jump back to last" Even though it's a bit unflexible as I can't change $mark_macro_prefix without changing the macro too, because I can't do something like "push \$mark_macro_prefix\ l". But how to go back /again/ to the message that I came from: >> OTOH, it sometimes, errh, often happens (and I'm not even talking >> about a setup with pager_stop=no) that in my confused state of >> mind I just jump to the next message, and, suddenly remember >> something of the last message that could be important.

Hm, I'm too dense, I tried, but everything leaves me on the message that was marked -- marking the message doesn't perform the actual search, and once I've done the hotkey search I'm back on the marked message without having marked the message where I came from. > Just an idea, did not try it myself.
