Hi Nicolas, thanks for your quick reply.
You are right. The pattern !~(~h in-reply-to) does *approximately* what i need. ;-} It does, however, show me *some* threaded mails (which it shouldn't), but I guess that's due to bogus mail-clients not correctly setting the right headers or so... But it reduces the amount of mails I need to inspect manually considerably! ;-> I think I can live with that solution, so thanks again! PS: The !$ pattern isn't mentioned in the manual (http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-4.html). What's it supposed to do? * Nicolas Rachinsky schrieb am 22/09/08 13:48 +0200: > > !~(~h in-reply-to) seems to do approximately what you want. > > I just found the pattern ~$, but I'm not sure what it does.
