Thanks, this is exactly what happens. I had forgotten about this because I have set 'auto_tag= yes' in the .muttrc However, it turns out that even with <tag-prefix> such as ... folder-hook . 'push "<tag-pattern>~s test234<enter><tag-prefix>s\Ca\Ck=isomerica/archive\n"' if no message matches "~s test234" it does always save the last message to the archive, so this would have to be changed to _only_ apply _if_ any message is tagged (or is there something like <delete-pattern> for saving? Anyway, I don't want to do this anyway, and not even sure if it's of help to the OP, so no need on my part to pursue this further. m. > > HTH & HAND > > /dossen > -- > This is a personal problem.
